Pictures of Nigel Farage drinking in pubs with mystery women on his arm is part of what makes Britain great, Gordon Brown claimed today as he attacked UKIP for fuelling fears about globalisation. The former Prime Minister mocked Mr Farage’s image as a drinking, womanising populist who fuels fears about globalisation. Mr Brown insisted the rise of UKIP – topping the European elections last month – was not the result of public anger over immigration or Europe, but fears about the ‘juggernaut’ of global change and Britain’s place in the world. Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown warned Labour against thinking the rise of UKIP was the result of anger over immigration or Europe
