In the recent revival of the satirical show Spitting Image and its spin-off The Rest is Bulls!t, the puppet of Nigel Farage is portrayed as a charismatic but deeply xenophobic and violent individual with a focus on extreme nationalist policies. The character is a parody of the British politician and current Leader of Reform UK. Key aspects of the Spitting Image personality include: Extreme Nationalism and Xenophobia: He expresses a desire to "make Britain great again" by deporting migrants and ethnic minorities. Fascist Overtones: The character is explicitly depicted as an enthusiastic Neo-Nazi, shown "accessorizing himself to 'make the salute really pop'". Heartless & Violent Nature: The character is described as heartless and violent, for example, attacking Keir Starmer in the middle of a speech. Controversial Policies: His exaggerated policies in the show include leaving the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) within 60 seconds of power, mining the English Channel, and having the RAF patrol it with Spitfires. Admiration for Far-Right Figures: The puppet is depicted as being very fond of Donald Trump and potentially Vladimir Putin. The satirical depiction uses these exaggerated traits to mock his controversial public image and political positions.
