The caller rang up and instantly targeted the LBC host in a savage verbal attack.
Ben, the caller, claimed the former Ukip leader was happy to have a German wife and live in Britain, but doesn’t want others to have the same privileges.
Mr Farage was shocked by the personal onslaught. During the show the caller rang up and said: “What I find amazing is that in actual fact, you are a complete hypocrite.

“You're married to a German lady, a German national who works here.”
Mr Farage, who married his wife Kirsten in 1999, responded by questioning whether the caller had been listening to the show.
He said: “Have I said that I dislike all foreigners is that what you’re trying to say?
“Sorry matey, I think you might have got the wrong end of the stick here.”
Ben said he was angered as his fiancee lives in Madrid and wants to move to Britain to work and felt Mr Farage wasn't fair with his views.
He said: “All the rhetoric that's being bounded around Brexit, saying we don't want the foreigners in.”

Next Mr Farage exploded over the comments from the caller as he put him down with a furious blast.
He said: “Who said we don't want the foreigners in? I mean, were you listening to the Brexit debate?
“You tell me, Ben, when I once, ever, made a comment that was anywhere near what you've just alleged.”
Mr Farage then finished by putting down Angela Merkel at the same time by thanking her for welcoming migrants to Germany which he said played a crucial role in Leave winning the EU referendum.
He said: “I think Mrs Merkel contributed hugely to us winning the Brexit referendum through the absolute madness of saying as many as want to come can come.”
