He has achieved what he set out to. WHEN we leave the EU he won't be an MEP anymore. When was Farage ever going to be making decisions for the country after the referendum? There is a chance he may be given a role in cabinet if Andrea Leadsom is PM. How is that, as I understand it, to have a place in Parliament you have to be an elected Member of Parliament, and he's not, and he's the butt of all the jokes in the EU Parliament.

Yeah but if he took it there'd be a petition for "annual remain".

Nigel Fararge has done what he intended and I'm sure he will have a role to play in the future. I hope the left are decimated at the next election. Their inability to accept a democratic decision is nothing short of disgraceful and the Corbyn fiasco has made them a laughing stock. That's not mentioning the Chilcott inquiry which I'm sure the current rabble will try to distance themselves from. They can't. It was the Labour Party in government and Blair, Prescott and all the others are the same brand of hypocrite that fill that party now.

Minister without portfolio is an option. It wouldn't surprise me to see him return to the Conservative party and drag a lot of the UKIP support with him - But I think that would be the end of him politically if he did so.

And Farage let NOBODY down... he's campaigned for us to leave the EU for decades, in the face of very hostile opposition from every corner. The EU referendum even taking place at all was down to him, let alone the fantastic result that we won. Arise Sir Nigel of Farage!
I hope when the Queen Knights him the sword slips. He's a racist hiding behind party privilege, anyone else spouting his venomous bile would be lockup.

Maybe but that's a foolish stance seeing as the 2 biggest members (France & Germany) of the EU export 20% of their exports to the UK. We export less to them. And there's a handful and possibly more members are leaning towards leaving whilst a handful of Balkan nations are about to join and become net receivers of EU funding. And not to mention up to 50% youth unemployment in Southern Europe. They are not in a position to be sanctimonious about anything. Brexit has shook things up, there is no doubt about that. Hardly a laughing stock. Juncker even gave him a kiss and cuddle to show respect.
