Farage predicted on Monday that Republicans would avoid a heavy defeat; they later lost control of the Senate and House.

Farage blamed the Iran war and resulting high fuel prices, saying the conflict was in its eighth month.

He backed strikes to slow Iran’s nuclear-weapons development but opposed endless wars and feared further attacks on Iran.

Farage said he had expected Elon Musk’s donations to limit losses, but acknowledged that he had been wrong.

“But in this case, he said, no more foreign wars and here we are in month eight of a war with no sign of ending. And that, and the resulting fuel prices, in the end has done the damage.”— Nigel Farage, commenting on Donald Trump’s promise to avoid foreign wars and the impact of the Iran war on the Republicans’ midterm losses.

Farage said he had a physical altercation with an MP in the chamber at May’s State Opening and that his prayer card had been removed.

Cooper said her understanding was that Farage shoved a female MP and a male MP then challenged him; she was not there herself.

A Liberal Democrat spokesperson described an attempted shove; Reform UK rejected the account and accused the Liberal Democrats of aggression.

Rosie Duffield said the Budget chamber was not full; Alicia Kearns said another Reform MP could have given Farage a seat.

“My understanding – I didn’t see it, I wasn’t there – my understanding is that he physically shoved one of our female MPs out of the way, and that one of our male MPs then challenged him on that.”— Daisy Cooper, deputy leader of the Liberal Democrats, speaking in a Sky News interview about the incident at the state opening of Parliament.

Nigel Farage says he skipped Budget to avoid 'physical altercation': Farage was not in the House of Commons when John Healey delivered his first Budget

Farage said he had previously been involved in a physical altercation with an unnamed MP during the State Opening.

Tim Gordon said many seats were free and he had not seen Farage attend prayers to secure one.

Farage said he instead reviewed the Budget line by line in his office with senior economists.

A House of Commons spokesperson said a prayer card placed on a seat without a valid date stamp was removed under usual chamber protocol.

At the State Opening of Parliament, I didn't want to, but I got involved in a physical altercation with an MP in the chamber.
— Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, said this at a press conference while describing an earlier incident at the State Opening of Parliament.
