Nigel Farage has announced he is boycotting the BBC as he accused the broadcaster of bias over Friday’s special episode of Question Time. The Reform leader took part in a question-and-answer session with a live studio audience, but criticized the audience selection as unrepresentative. Farage called on the BBC to apologize and stated that Reform would campaign to abolish the TV license fee. In response, Question Time editor Gerry Gay stated that there would be a balance of audience representation from Reform UK and other parties. Farage's boycott comes amidst ongoing controversy surrounding Channel 4's portrayal of a Reform canvasser, which Farage claims was a political set-up.
