A heated exchange erupted on Good Morning Britain as Nigel Farage and Richard Madeley locked horns over Brexit, immigration, and the state of the NHS. The debate quickly turned fiery, with both men refusing to back down.
Brexit Blow-Up
Farage, the former UKIP leader, defended Brexit, arguing that leaving the EU had allowed Britain to regain control of its borders. Madeley, however, challenged him, questioning whether the promised benefits had materialized.
"We were lied to," Madeley fired back, accusing Brexiteers of overpromising. Farage hit back, insisting that "the real betrayal" was the failure to fully capitalize on Brexit opportunities.
NHS Funding Row
The debate then shifted to the NHS, with Madeley pressing Farage on whether enough money had been allocated to the health service post-Brexit. Farage countered by blaming mismanagement rather than funding shortages.
"The NHS needs reform, not just more cash," Farage argued, sparking further backlash from Madeley, who accused him of dodging responsibility.
Immigration Tensions
The clash reached its peak when immigration was brought up. Farage doubled down on his stance for stricter controls, while Madeley accused him of scapegoating migrants for systemic issues.
Viewers took to social media, with many calling it "one of the most explosive GMB debates ever." The segment ended with neither side conceding ground, leaving hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls to mediate.
