Nigel Farage has criticised Sky Sports for retaining Gary Neville as a pundit after Neville's recent comments about the Union Flag and 'angry, middle-aged white men' in the aftermath of a deadly attack on a Manchester synagogue. Neville explained in a video why he removed a Union Jack flag from one of his Manchester development sites, arguing that the flag was being used to foster division. His remarks have sparked backlash from football fans, with protests outside his hotel and football club, and criticism from former colleagues like Matt Le Tissier. Despite the controversy, Sky Sports has stated that Neville will face no action, further fueling debate about free speech, patriotism, and the role of public figures in sensitive national conversations.
