Reform UK leader Nigel Farage appeared on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg to answer questions about the water industry and other topics
BBC viewers who tuned in on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg complained about Nigel Farage’s interview. The Reform UK leader appeared on the political show to answer questions about the water industry and other major topics. Minutes into his interview, fans of the show complained that Farage gets “too much air time” and also argued that Laura “clearly disliked him.” Laura’s first question to Nigel was asking him how much it would cost to have water under 50% public control. He replied that it depends on the deal, but there’s a “hell of a mess”.
One viewer at home complained on X, formally known as Twitter: “Laura clearly dislikes Farage and shows it, what happened to impartiality @BBC? #BBCLauraK

A second person also replied: “She has favourites. It is always written on her face. He gets her worked up.” A third also typed: “Why is again #bbclaurak let Nigel spout nonsense, talk over her and get him tell her to stop talking so he can waffle.”
One person defended Nigel and said, “Good interview. Farage definitely cut through. I’m now only half-listening to Ed Davy.”
As the interview went on, Nigel later argued that if a water company goes bust, investors should lose money. Laura then quizzed him about Scarborough Town Council and about giving its Reform Mayor a 600% pay rise, to which Nigel said: “I have no idea! I don’t know.”
Laura said: “In principle, is that the right thing to do?” Nigel said: “I don’t know the Scarborough circumstances.”
The pair also spoke about human-induced climate change. Nigel argued, without presenting any factual evidence, that the United Kingdom hasn’t helped reduce global CO2 emissions, but instead simply exported it.
One person defended Nigel and said: “Well said @Nige_Farage on @bbclaurak #BBCLauraK regarding #netzero finally a politician speaking sense about reducing less than 0.0001% of earth’s CO2 by economically bankrupting UK. Also CO2 is needed by plants to grow!”
Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg is on at 9am every Sunday on BBC One.
