Andy Murray and Nigel Farage in Twitter spat

Nigel Farage has hit back at Andy Murray in a Twitter row over Novak Djokovic.

Djokovic was freed from immigration detention in Australia hours after a judge ruled that border guards were wrong to tear up his visa and try to deport him because he is not vaccinated.

Farage, who has been supporting Djokovic's cause online, tweeted a video from Serbia with the tennis star's family.

Talking about Djokovic's situation, Farage wrote: "If they can do this to the world's No 1 tennis player, just think what they could do to you."

Murray replied to Farage, telling him to "record the awkward moment when you tell them you've spent most of your career campaigning to have people from Eastern Europe deported".

Farage has now responded, saying: "Dear Andy, you clearly don't understand politics or the Brexit campaign but are filled with prejudice. Concentrate on the tennis and, a word of advice, crack a smile every now and again."
