"He's doomed, he will be gone - I thought he'd be gone by now. I was wrong. But I do think he's got just a few months in him."

"There is a 6% chance Keir Starmer will still be Prime Minister at the end of 2026."

"84% of bets back a 2026 exit for Keir Starmer."

"There is a 62% chance Keir Starmer will be out before Sep 1, 2026."

"There's a 32% chance Keir Starmer will remain Prime Minister in 2026."

"43% think that Keir Starmer will still be Prime Minister at the end of the year."

"These things turn around very, very fast and anyone making predictions in the current atmosphere is a fool."

"As much as MPs might want him to go, he is unlikely to acquiesce."

"There is only a 64% likelihood that he will still be in Downing Street by 31 December 2026."

“I will be sitting in this seat by 2027 and if this long-form interview works, we can try it again in January of next year as well.”

The BBC removed the Newsnight episode from iPlayer and BBC Sounds and broadcast an on-air apology on Wednesday's edition of the program. Farage said his legal team had written to the BBC demanding a full on-air apology and an investigation into what Reform called "defamatory comments."

Farage's original remarks followed the release of bodycam footage showing the final moments of 18-year-old Henry Nowak, who was stabbed by Vickrum Digwa in Southampton in December. Digwa falsely told police he had been the victim of a racist attack and was jailed for life with a minimum 21-year term.

Hampshire Police Chief Constable Alexis Boon said 11 officers and a police dog were injured during protests in Southampton on Tuesday night. Two men, Matt Styler and Daniel Frost, were charged in connection with the violent disorder and appeared at Southampton Magistrates Court on June 4.

Reform's legal letter accused Chorley of "racialising" Farage's remarks, stating the misquote "converts a criticism of discriminatory conduct by the authorities into an apparent appeal to race." The party also demanded an investigation into how the incorrect quotation entered production materials without checks.

The BBC faced a separate dispute over its Question Time Makerfield by-election special, after Restore Britain — polling at 7% in a Survation survey — was not invited to participate, while parties polling lower were included. Restore Britain said it was consulting its legal team over what it called "blatant election interference."
