'An encyclopedic account of Nigel Farage's singular awfulness. And a forensic analysis of how he hides it from voters'

'Nigel Farage will hate this book almost as much as I liked it'
Alastair Campbell, co-host of the The Rest is Politics
Nigel Farage is one of the most consequential British politicians of our age. He is a power in the land, and it is possible that he will become the UK's prime minister after the next general election. But who is he?
Farage's life has been one hell of a romp. The man who delivered Brexit makes the political weather like no one else. He talks saloon-bar English to voters, shows courage, and cracks good jokes, sometimes at his own expense. He has survived a car accident and a plane crash, and has come through it all baring his tobacco-stained teeth and croaking his trademark laugh.
But there is another, darker, side to the man who would be our leader. In The Real Nigel Farage, fearless investigative reporter John Sweeney makes the case for the prosecution, levelling seven grave charges that Farage is not a fit and proper candidate to become prime minister or be anywhere near power.
Drawing on interviews with people who have seen Farage up close and personal - from fellow Dulwich College pupils to party colleagues and at least one former lover - Sweeney paints a portrait of a man whose character can be summed up in four words: charisma, cruelty, chaos - and greed.
Sweeney has gone head-to-head with Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in a career spanning three decades. Now it's Nigel Farage's turn. This is the real Nigel Farage. You can't say you haven't been warned.©2026 Black Dog Woof! Woof! Productions Limited (P)2026 Headline Publishing Group Limited

Critic Reviews
It is extraordinary how little proper journalistic scrutiny Farage has received. This book is timely and essential reading from a veteran reporter and troublemaker
An encyclopedic account of Nigel Farage's singular awfulness. And a forensic analysis of how he hides it from voters
Nigel Farage will hate this book almost as much as I liked it
Sharp and fearless. Move over Dennis Waterman and John Thaw. This John is THE Sweeney
A pacy, racy read that rattles along in Sweeney's characteristic style ... a very good take-down of Farage. Nobody could read the book and like or admire him.
Nigel Farage will hate this book almost as much as I liked it. (Alastair Campbell, co-host of The Rest is Politics)
