Nigel Farage’s show of support for the NHS rang hollow – 7 scathing clapbacks

Thursday evening saw many people take to their paths to conduct the Clap For Carers that has become a lockdown tradition across the UK.

One of those people was this guy.

His history of having said the UK should move to a paid model of healthcare, as well as his anti-immigrant stance made his clip go down like a dose of the clap.

Here are our favourite reactions.

I see you're back from your trip being a racist on the beach Nigel; surprised you're using a cooking pot and not a dog whistle…😐 https://t.co/cMPaEQeEOl

You flouted the lockdown, risking infection to both yourself and others, just to make video in which you wander around looking like a melted Alan Partridge bitterly tooting on the same old dog whistle.

If you had your way, many of those workers you applaud wouldn't even be here. https://t.co/tPqr1WuuBr

Author and comedy writer, James Felton, had a message for him.

You’ve spent your whole career bashing and stoking xenophobia against the people who you’re bashing your shit pan for now. Get back inside, heat up your tin of beans for one and never pretend to support the NHS again. And stop using metal forks in your pan you freak.
