Nigel Farage has told people to stop apologising for Britain's colonial past because 'obsessing' about events 300 years ago is useless. Mr Farage was scathing about the policy, and even suggested the British empire was not as heavy-handed as the conquests of other European nations. Brexit Party candidate Claire Fox tore into Labour's supposed call for a probe, and blasted it as 'political correctness'. Mr Farage also used his trip to Peterborough to defend his decision to stand Brexit Party candidates in Labour-held seats. He said Conservative claims that voting for the Brexit Party would put Jeremy Corbyn in 10 Downing Street were 'wrong and utterly disproved by history'.
