Nigel Farage has been confronted by a man in the street for profiting from "politics of fear". in Whitehaven, Cumbria, as he went in search of the nearby "Workington Man". It came as Sky News reported Farage said he would be willing to compromise and reach a pact to stand aside in Tory seats and accept Boris Johnson's Brexit deal - if it had major changes. Previously Farage said Mr Johnson must drop the deal totally if he wants an electoral alliance with the Brexit Party. But this hardline stance prompted a walkout of high-profile candidates. Farage today joined attacks on the crude think tank stereotype - of an "older, white, non-graduate voter living in rugby league towns in the north" - as a "load of patronising cobblers". But when he met the real people of Cumbria, he got a stern talking-to himself. Labour voter Karl let rip saying the 2016 EU referendum was won on the basis of "lies" s Farage's two bodyguards swept in to stand between the pair. Karl, from Egremont, said: "We don't need you coming here. Why aren't you standing as a candidate?"

But Karl insisted it was the Tories' "mess" not Labour's and said: "We're not independent, are we? We'll never be independnet." . The politician received a mixed reaction as he visited the region on Wednesday. Right-wing think tank Onward named "Workington man" as a key swing voter for the Tories ahead of the election on December 12. It described a "middle England" voter who is an older, white, non-graduate man from the North of England, with strong rugby league traditions and a tendency to vote Labour . Farage, who is the first of the party leaders to visit the town since it was named as a key target, claimed the idea was a "load of patronising cobblers" as he addressed a roomful of supporters in the Washington Hotel in Workington. Farage received a more positive reaction from IT engineer Nigel Metcalf, 47, a lifelong Labour supporter who voted to leave the EU, a
