Scotcast - Why Scots are warming to Farage
Download Why Scots are warming to Farage
Nigel Farage’s Reform UK won more votes than the Scottish Greens and Alba Party combined in the 2024 general election.
With opinion polls suggesting his party is on course to have several MSPs elected to the Scottish Parliament, we ask Reform councillor Thomas Kerr why voters here are warming to a politician who once sought refuge from protesters in an Edinburgh pub.
Scotcast is the BBC’s Scottish news podcast, with Martin Geissler, Laura Miller and Natalie Higgins.
