Reform UK's Honorary President Nigel Farage has hit back at Broadcaster Piers Morgan in a bitter on-air row after he was accused of "bottling" his decision to stand in the upcoming General Election.

Farage, who is supporting Reform's campaign trail ahead of the July ballot, defended his decision on BBC panel show Question Time after being grilled by an audience member why he chose not to stand.

Also appearing on the panel, former Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan heckled Farage and claimed he "bottled" his decision because he "lost" his last attempt at election success.

Infuriated by Morgan's remarks, Farage scolded the broadcaster and told him "you've never stood in an election!"

Morgan hit back at Farage, claiming the Honorary President has "had all year" to prepare an election campaign.

In response, Farage told Morgan that "I have a nightly TV show - yours has been shut down, but mine is still going!"

Host Fiona Bruce then interjected and told the pair to stop squabbling.

Farage made his 37th appearance on Question Time this evening.
