Was the BBC report disparaging? Seems fair to me.
// Outgoing UKIP leader Nigel Farage has urged Republicans to "get your walking boots on" and drum up support for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
He appeared before 15,000 activists in Jackson, Mississippi, being introduced by and sharing the stage with Mr Trump.
And he said the party could "beat the pollsters" in the presidential race.
Mr Trump, who is trailing his rival Hillary Clinton in the opinion polls, backed the UK's exit from the EU.
In a tweet last week, Mr Trump said: "They will soon be calling me Mr Brexit."
Mr Trump introduced Mr Farage as the man who "brilliantly" led the UK Independence Party's campaign to secure a vote on the future of the UK's 40-year membership of the European Union.
Mr Farage began his address by saying he had a "message of hope and optimism" for the Republican Party.
He drew on parallels between Mr Trump's bid for the White House and that of the Brexit campaign's "people's army of ordinary citizens", which he said engaged successfully with the public prior to the UK's referendum vote on whether to leave the EU.
He told those gathered: "If you want change in this country, you better get your walking boots on, you better get out there campaigning.
"And remember, anything is possible if enough decent people are prepared to stand up against the establishment."
Media captionHow Americans responded to Nigel Farage
Mr Farage also said the Republican campaign represented a "fantastic opportunity".
He added: "You can beat the pollsters, you can beat the commentators, you can beat Washington."
Mr Farage, who attended the Republican convention in Cleveland last month, had previously said he would not "fall into the trap" of personally endorsing Mr Trump in his quest to reach the White House.
However, during his rally appearance he said that if he were an American, he would not vote for Mrs Clinton "even if you paid me". //

Trump needs to have eyes in the back of his head to improve his sense of direction! Wasn't the best of intro's was it?
Speech was fair enough in my book.Trump has a lot to do but it wouldn't take a miracle.
We only have to look at the Brexit result itself and disaffection in Germany,Austria and the Netherlands for example to demonstrate that the unthinkable can be realised.
Whatever the outcome in the US,there is that 'special relationship' to uphold!

"As far as I can tell Hilliary's main claim to the job is that her husband did it."
Let's not forget her time as Secretary of State, where apparently she was working really hard and doing a really good job... she does have political experience in droves. Unfortunately, in the current climate, this counts against her.

Jim > she was working really hard and doing a really good job... she does have political experience in droves. Unfortunately, in the current climate, this counts against her.
It was ever thus.People are very likely to be more remembered for their indiscretions rather than their good work.Mr Clinton readily springs to mind!
Political experience isn't always enough in any climate.I will single out Mr Corbyn here.Sometimes,you have to move with the times and also come up with the sucker punches to defy your critics.

Mikey; //Farage was clearly showing his support for this stupid, racist,//
A quick check reveals that The Donald has created "at least 34,000 jobs" many of those from people of every sort of ethnic backgrounds.
So why is he a 'racist'?
He has become a billionaire twice over, by cleverness and a marvelous instinct for business.
So why is he 'stupid' ?
Are you a billionaire? and how many jobs have you created?

Trump isn't stupid, he's just horribly inconsistent. His supporters apparently haven't noticed this.

agchristie -- indeed, but I think particularly in the current climate the political experience some people have is counting against them even sharper than before. And, for some reason that I can't quite fathom, Hillary Clinton is getting this problem ten times worse than virtually every other politician in the world. (That's probably an exaggeration, but it certainly feels that way at times).
