Nigel Farage says he has not had a physical altercation with Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey, after social media users circulated AI-generated “deepfake” videos claiming the incident happened on the set of BBC Question Time. According to the reports, X (formerly Twitter) was flooded with the fake content, prompting Farage to respond publicly and deny the allegation. The claims describe Farage appearing to fight Bailey during the programme, but Farage says he would “never take it that far,” casting the videos as fabricated. The reports treat the circulating material as misinformation created using AI rather than evidence of a real event. No additional confirmed details about a real confrontation are provided in the sources, and the focus remains on Farage’s denial and the spread of the manipulated videos online.
