“I do not hunt foxes.”
Reasoning & Evidence09 Jul 2026
Public reporting shows Farage attending hunt gatherings and being described as a regular spectator/supporter, but I found no independent public source proving that he personally hunted foxes. A spectator at a hunt meet is not the same as participating in fox hunting, so the claim cannot be verified from public evidence alone. (independent.co.uk) Sources: The Independent, "Nigel Farage joins Kent Boxing Day Hunt for early morning pint" (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/nigel-farage-joins-kent-boxing-day-hunt-for-early-morning-pint-a7496431.html); The Guardian, "Cameron faces Tory revolt over move to ease ban on hunting with hounds" (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/mar/23/cameron-tory-revolt-hunting-hounds).
From article
It’s difficult. I mean, listen, there are extreme libertarians who argue that all forms of pornography are acceptable, or – yeah, there are some very extreme positions out there. I don’t support those, but I do think that in this country government is impinging, bit by bit, upon our freedoms – and I think that the smoking ban and the hunting ban are two very good examples. I don’t hunt foxes, but if other people want to, that doesn’t actually impinge on my personal freedom.
