Rishi Sunak has said a racial slur against him by a Reform UK canvasser “hurts and it makes me angry” and that party leader Nigel Farage “has some questions to answer”.
Campaigners for Mr Farage’s party were recorded making racist comments during a Channel 4 News undercover investigation, including about the Prime Minister who is of Indian descent.
Mr Sunak said: “My two daughters have to see and hear Reform people who campaign to Nigel Farage calling me an effing p***.
It hurts and it makes me angry, and I think he has some questions to answer.
