BBC presenter Matt Chorley issued a public apology after it emerged that he had misquoted Reform UK leader Nigel Farage's words on air.

Chorley acknowledged that the quotation error was due to his own faulty memory. "It was my mistake," he said, adding that he simply "misremembered" Farage's actual words.
