Full title: Police confirm they are investigating Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage after he vowed to ‘take the knife to the pen pushers in Whitehall’ as debate rages over tone of political debate in Britain

Police are investigating after Nigel Farage said he would 'take the knife to the pen pushers in Whitehall' at a Brexit Party rally in Wales.

He told the Newport audience: 'Once Brexit is done, we will take the knife to the pen pushers in Whitehall.'

Alliance Party MEP Naomi Long tweeted calling for police to investigate Farage for his comments.

She said: 'Can you confirm that you intend to investigate this clear case of incitement to violence against staff in the Civil Service? Thank you.'

Gwent Police, which operates in Newport, replied to say: 'We have been made aware of comments made last night in Newport and we are looking into these allegations.'

Farage's comments come amid growing fears about the language used by politicians.

Just yesterday former home secretary Amber Rudd accused Boris Johnson of being 'immoral' and using language that 'incites violence'.

Johnson said Remainer MPs were 'betraying' the people and describing their bid to delay Brexit as the 'Surrender Act'.

Pigboat Naomi Long is apparently ignorant of metaphors.

I didn’t know England’s geography was so rough and ugly.

Cause she’s the size of a ####ing country.

The other day Trump banned Venezuelan police and military from entering the U.S. under any circumstance.

We need to do the same with the British.

And as far as US military protection for that dead “nation”, forget it. At this point in history it’s obvious that we should have left them to the Hun.

“Just ‘cause I said it, it don’t mean that I meant it
People say crazy things

“Rumour Has It” by Adele

In my book Adele is PROFOUND here.

NO ONE but yourself can “know” what you meant by what you said.

Is freedom of speech DEAD? Not yet, but it is on life support or in hospice care.

“Does it have a sex?”

Yes, but only with itself!

Oh, wait.... you said “a” sex.

No!, I did not eat the children.

Not all of them, anyway.

There were a few...

Just a few...

I put in the oven for safety. Bumped it with my bum maybe.

The meat just fell off the bone.

So no, I don’t know what happened to the Brexit youth.

Nigel would need a sharp harpoon for that barnicle-laden sea mammal, not a knife.
