The Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has launched a scalding attack in Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his administration for their coronavirus response.
Mr Farage took aim at the PM who this week has been urging members of the public to stay at home, Mr Brexit posted on his Twitter on Tuesday morning saying: “Disgraceful scenes on the London underground this morning. We will only obey a Government we respect.”
The former UKIP leader also turned his attention to flights still landing in the United Kingdom from coronavirus hotspot areas such as Italy and China.
So we are to be locked down — and a new testing regime will begin.
Will the planes keep coming from Milan, Tehran and Beijing? I expect so.
It’s all too late.

Taking to Twitter Mr Farage wrote: “So we are able to be locked down – and a new testing regime will begin.
“Will the planes keep coming from Milan, Tehran and Beijing? I expect so, It’s all too late.”
In a later tweet, Mr Farage added: “We are being asked to give up our freedom by a Government who still have no testing regime.
“South Korea showed the way on this, but we are behind every other country, not good enough.”

During an interview on Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, he said “I’m sure most people watching this programme now wouldn’t even know where to go to get tested, even if it was available.
“The science from all over the world is saying test, test, test and that is what the World Health Organisation has said as well.
“We are currently hearing precious little on that.”
He added: “I think the problem is they got off on the wrong foot on this.
“We keep being told the Government is being guided by the science but the science was to go for herd immunity.
“But that would have killed 100,000s of people and they have since changed tact on that.
“When you see the scenes on the London Underground this morning you worry about the consistency and worry that the people around Boris are not doing their job properly.”
