Piers then questioned Farage on whether he thought it was right that there aren’t statues of Adolf Hitler in Germany.

The GMB host asked: “Sorry I don’t want to be pedantic, but should a statue of Adolf Hitler be in Germany?”

Nigel said: “You’re right, you’re being very pedantic.

“Piers I know you want to play this game and you wonder why people don’t want to come on our programme.”

After further probing by Piers, Nigel finally admitted that it is right that there aren’t Hitler statues in Germany.
