## Resource

James O’Brien is back - and straight into the storm. In today’s episode, James asks whether this time really is different for Nigel Farage, as questions mount over his secretive £5 million "gift', his shifting explanations, and a response that James argues has made him look rattled, thin-skinned and weak. If Farage has always sold himself as the outsider taking on the establishment, has the mask finally slipped? This episode was recorded on the 13th of July.
