>> well, as you said, nigel, i mean, it has been a momentous year politically.ny of us can forget the rather tragic sight of rishi sunak standing outside downing street looking like a seal, you know, and you sort of think, really? a man who can't even think about getting an umbrella and he's calling an election. why? well, we know why he'd had enough. and of course, the astonishing turnaround of trump in america, you know, he was not looking like he was going to win. and i think if there are winners and losers, one of the biggest losers, one of the biggest losers this year has been joe biden, whose distinguished and long career in politics has been tarnished by the way he hung on and hung on. >> well, it's certainly been a long career. >> well, i think he's had moments of distinguish, but i think i must have missed them. >> i can't think that. >> i can't think that. >> and personally, personally, the highlight of my year was after the heavy rain at the beginning of the year, which completely drowned my allotment. and i know there are some gardeners here. i decid

i mean, yeah, nigel farage on his own show may be a touch biased towards nigel farage.s possible i'm going to allow that possibility. >> he's not self—hating like us, is he right? >> i'm a fair man, but i don't think there's a particular bias against kemi. i happen to favour jenrick over kemi. but. but if farage does something i don't agree with, i'll say that as well. and actually one of the strongest criticisms against farage recently came from a gb news us interview from steven edgerton. and farage got quite a lot of blowback off that interview for stuff he said about immigration policy. so i don't think it's the case. lots of people have been very pro. kemi andrew doyle was very pro kemi, so i've been critical of it, but i think people just give their opinion. i don't think there's an anti kemi conspiracy. >> no i know i'm pro kemi and but she made a mistake here. >> it seems like which mistake coming for gb news. >> no. the two mistakes are to jump >> no. the two mistakes are to jump into this thing saying accusing them. obviously someone said to her this informati
