Farage: Mums should breastfeed ‘in the corner’

Nigel Farage has waded into the Claridge’s breastfeeding row, suggesting mothers should be willing to “sit in the corner” in restaurants to avoid offending people.

The Ukip leader insisted it was “not too difficult” to feed a child in a way that was “not openly ostentatious”.

The comments, in his regular LBC radio phone-in, came after mother-of-three Louise Burns complained that the luxury Mayfair hotel asked her to put a napkin over her baby’s head.
