Nigel Farage reveals surprising confession from Jean-Claude Juncker in private phone call
Nigel Farage, shared a shocking confession from president of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker on his LBC show. The Brexit Party leader revealed he had received a personal phone call from the EU official back in 2015. He said it was a story he had “never told anyone before in public”.
Speaking to LBC caller, David from Newry in Northern Ireland, he said: “David I’ll tell you a story I’ve never told anyone before in public.
“It’s about a Remainer, his name’s Jean-Claude Juncker.
“Jean-Claude Juncker rang me up personally and spoke to me the day after the general election in 2015.
“He called to say how ridiculous it was that I’d got that number of votes and almost no reward.”
He joked: “So you see there can be civility between Leavers and Remainers.”
David, a self-described “diehard Remainer”, had called into Mr Farage’s LBC show to complain about the voting system in the UK.
He said: “I do think it’s unfair that your previous party, Ukip, got four million votes and yet you haven’t got one MP.
“The whole system is skewed, the first-past-the-post system is out-of-date.”
He added: “If you had four million votes out of the totality of votes that are cast, you should be on 50 MPs.”
MPs approved Boris Johnson’s plans for a pre-Christmas election on December 12.
Political scientist Sir John Curtice revealed he expects a “record number” of non-Conservative MPs and non-Labour MPs in Parliament after the election.

He said: “The SNP look set to win the vast majority of seats in Scotland. The Liberal Democrats given their position in the polls should do extremely well. We expect Caroline Lucas and the Green Party to hang on to her seat.
“We could have more than 100 MPs that do not belong to either of the other two parties.
“That matters for two reasons. The first is that it makes it difficult for either Conservative or Labour to win an overall majority if you’re taking the fact that 100 of the seats are already spoken for.
“Secondly, it matters because this is an asymmetric election. It’s an election that Boris Johnson has to win.
“If he does not get a majority or something very close to it, he will not be able to stay in Government because the Conservatives do not have any friends elsewhere.”
