'The biggest racism I've seen in British politics is happening north of the border'

UKIP leader Nigel Farage says the β€œbiggest racism I've seen in British politics is happening north of the border with the SNP".

Farage was responding to questions about racism within his own party, after 28% of UKIP supporters surveyed in a YouGov opinion poll said they had β€œracist” views.

"Some of the anti-English hatred is reaching a truly astonishing level” said Farage.

β€œI would think that if the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ is worried about racism that’s where they ought to be looking” he added.

The SNP have described Farage’s comments as "disgraceful".
