NIGEL Farage would unleash mass school shootings on Britain, Sir Ed Davey has sensationally claimed.
The Lib Dem buffoon told his Bournemouth conference Mr Farage was a “British Trump” who would scrap gun laws – despite Reform never calling for such a policy.

Sir Ed said kids would be forced to “learn what to do in case of a mass shooting” as a result.
A Reform source hit back furiously, saying: “Ed Davey squanders his big moment spouting total madness.
“The Lib Dems are an irrelevant laughing stock.”
The Lib Dem chief’s comments were part of a wider tirade in his keynote speech, in which he painted a dystopian picture of “Farage’s Britain”.
Sir Ed said: “Imagine living in the Trump-inspired country Farage wants us to become. “Where there’s no NHS, so patients are hit with crippling insurance bills. Or denied healthcare altogether.
“Where we pay Putin for expensive fossil fuels and destroy our beautiful countryside with fracking – while climate change rages on.
“Where gun laws are rolled back, so schools have to teach our children what to do in case of a mass shooting.
“Where social media barons are free to poison young minds with impunity.”
At one stage during, Sir Ed also lumped Mr Farage in with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Andrew Tate, accusing him of siding with “dark forces” bent on destroying Britain’s values.
He thundered: “Nigel Farage is on the side of Elon Musk, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.
“Liberal Democrats are on the side of the British people.”
And he even insisted he “loves Britain” more than Farage, declaring: “Because unlike Farage, I actually love Britain. I’m proud of our country.”
Mr Farage did once rail against the handgun ban in 2014 when leading Ukip – calling it “ludicrous” and a “kneejerk” response to the 1996 Dunblane massacre.
But the comments were more than a decade ago, and Reform has no such policy
