Brexit: UKIP Leader, Nigel Farage stands down
Nigel Farage MEP (UKIP) announced this morning that he is standing down as the leader of UKIP. He will continue to support the party and the new leader.
He has said that he did not want to be a career politician and through the EU referendum result has achieved his goal of the UK becoming a self-governing country again. He did not announce his resignation as a member of the European Parliament, so we assume that he will still attend Strasbourg plenary sessions, if not Brussels.
The Vote Leave campaign, endorsed by the Electoral Commission, side-lined Farage during the campaign. Farage, seen as a ‘Marmite’ politician, that is, someone you either love or hate, was kept at arms length. Farage complained that he had been ostracized by the main ‘Leave’ campaigners. Nevertheless, Farage was popular with the media.
