Nigel Farage was booed by the established media as he was crowned ‘Presenter of the Year’ at the Tric Awards yesterday.
Appearing on stage, Farage said: “It's like the crowd at a wrestling event, really. I notice much less hostility than we had last year.”
Farage continued: “And just think about it- GB News Breakfast has won, the Camilla Tominey interview with Alastair Stewart has won.
“And I've won for a second year in a row as news presenter of the year, and that says to you that GB News is now here to stay as a mainstream broadcast in this country and thank goodness for that.”
At that point, audience members began to boo the presenter to which he responded: “Well, no, those that boo clearly don't like competition.”
Farage then thanked GB News viewers and listeners and also thanked his campmates in I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!.
He continued: “Sadly, my TV career has been somewhat curtailed because I have another mission coming up on July 4.”
“But thank you everybody!” he concluded.
