There is a historic battle going on across the west, in Europe, America, and elsewhere. It is globalism against populism. And you may loathe populism, but I’ll tell you a funny thing. It is becoming very popular! And it has great benefits. No more financial contributions, no more European Courts of Justice. No more European Common Fisheries Policy, no more being talked down to. No more being bullied, no more Guy Verhofstadt! What’s not to like. I know you’re going to miss us, I know you want to ban our national flags, but we’re going to wave you goodbye, and we’ll look forward in the future to working with you as a sovereign nation… [Farage is cut off by the chair]
Nigel Paul Farage (born 3 April 1964) is an English politician who has served as leader of Reform UK since 3 June 2024, a change announced during the 2024 general election, at which he was elected as the Member of Parliament for Clacton in Essex. Previously, he was leader of the Brexit Party (as Reform was originally known) from 2019 to 2021, leader of the UK Independence Party (2006–2009, 2010–2016) and a Member of the European Parliament (1999–2020). Since 2021, Farage has hosted TV programmes on GB News in the UK.
[The Establishment] put Donald J. Trump through: years of endless court cases, media abuse, harassment of his family, debanking by financial institutions, and assassination attempts. Yet he has come through it all braver, stronger, and wiser. In my experience, he is simply the bravest man I know. We should all applaud him.
The very idea of Tommy Robinson being at the centre of the Brexit debate is too awful to contemplate. And so, with a heavy heart, and after all my years of devotion to the party, I am leaving Ukip today. There is a huge space for a Brexit party in British politics, but it won't be filled by Ukip.
