00:00You said this is a setup. I know it is.
00:02Do you have a single shred of proof?
00:04Well, I'll tell you who he is. He's an actor. OK? Number one.
00:06All sorts of people are actors. That's not proof that this was a setup.
00:09Have you got any proof?
00:11He's an actor, a rather well-spoken actor,
00:15but he has an alter ego.
00:16He does what he calls rough speaking, all right?
00:21I was there working in the office in Essex when he turned up,
00:26and he was, from the moment he walked through the room,
00:29like a version of Alf Garnett.
00:32Now, I didn't know this was an act.
00:34It was an act from the start to the end.
00:36He spent time with the two Channel 4 undercover reporters in the office.
00:41In fact, he spent most of the morning with them.
00:43He then said, I've got a big car.
00:45He took canvassers out with Channel 4 in the car with him.
00:48He tried to get our canvassers to say nasty racist things,
00:51which, of course, they did not.
00:53And then he comes out with this, literally, Alf Garnett stream,
00:57including, all mosques should be turned into Wetherspoons.
01:00This was an act from start to finish.
01:03It was a deliberate attempt to derail our campaign.
