This little girl had one of the great all-time takedowns of Nigel Farage after she ‘knighted’ him on live TV
This clip of Nigel Farage being ‘knighted’ on live TV has gone viral all over again because it has one of the great all-time takedowns of the Brexit party leader.
It was a stunt on Sam Delaney’s show on RT (the channel formerly known as Russia Today).

Love this girl. Nige, hows brexit working out for ya? What’s it like when a five-year-old knows you’re a traitor? Reminder, RT is Russian state run television. RT stands for Russia Today. The Kremlin controls all of its content. They must be pissed at this clip https://t.co/10D3shK3YE

And just in case you were wondering how it happened, Sam was on Twitter to explain …
She was an actor, her parents were present, we rehearsed the stunt with a Farage stand-in for hours before his arrival. That's why she is wearing a mic and the camera just *happens* to be on her when she delivers the line. Full story included here https://t.co/Xb2LaVz31q
