Without Farage the referendum would never have happened.
The rise of anti-EU feeling was demonstrated in the 2015 election by UKIP winning 3.8 million votes.
That's where the real pressure came from. Not within the tory party.

Farage is a useful idiot for disaster capitalists, free-marketeers and Putin.

Absolutely agree remainers sneer at him but it's true without him we wouldn't be here, because at times he said it how we all feel, the likes of Boris hadn't grasped this sentiment or the balls to just speak for alot of people about 'sensitive' issues alot of BRITISH that's actually true loyal brits feel about. Not people intent on p1$$ watering down the UK to a multi national country so the true dwindling British population can no longer claim it's british. Im gathering most of the anti's are not British or share some resentment to us here.
Its quite ironic really.
The wealthy have engineered brexit, because it makes them richer and damages the country.
Aaron Banks that funded Farage was one of them.
The man in the street thinks Brexit is about 'making Britain great again'.
Please tell me Festive how putting a border inside the United Kingdom and breaking up the Union is showing loyalty to the UK.
And can you explain when you think this dwindling of British population started? Are you happy with the Romans being here or the Anglo Saxons. Perhaps you have a problem with the Normans.
One of the undying Brexit myths is that it was a people’s revolt, a spontaneous anti-elite rebellion against a pro-European establishment. Yet we now learn that up to two-thirds of the cash that paid for Brexit came from just five extremely wealthy anti-European fanatics.
Between them, Arron Banks, Peter Hargreaves, James Hosking, Robert Edmiston and Crispin Odey channelled £14.9 million to different pro-Brexit groups, according to analysis by the team behind the Sunday Times Rich List.
These men all made their fortunes in the new traded capitalism which grew as the City took advantage of the EU Single Market from the 1990s onwards. Used to the European Commission’s constant struggle to keep up with the rapid developments in digitally driven speculation, many in the City found the idea of being regulated along with other financial service firms anathema.
Spread-betters and online gambling firms have always been amongst the biggest donors to anti-European politics and organisations like the eurosceptic think
The most high-profile is Nigel Farage’s friend Aaron Banks, who gave £8.1 million to Ukip-led Brexit campaigns. Banks has achieved more than his 15 minutes of fame and, like many of the new capitalism’s super-rich, likes to throw his money around to promote his politics and get press exposure

No one should get a new year honour. The system as it is is an ar5e lickers dream.
It is because of him we are where we are.
Nigel spooked the hell out of both the Labour and Conservatives with the anti-immigrant rhetoric, which grabbed the imagination of a lot of people, remember Nigel is a one man band.
How many unheard of individuals have come and then disappeared from the leadership of the brexit party?
Can someone remind me how many seats did the Brexit party get in the last election?
And there are some areas of the UK that did not vote to leave the EU ??
He has never hidden or argued the above,,,,,,,,,,,,,, so what's your beef?
I don't believe for one moment that Boris Johnson, Jeremy Corbyn, John McDonald, Lady Thornberry or Sir Keri Starmer are paupers.

It was Nigel Farage who formed UKIP and shocked David Cameron on their success in the EU elections at the time and the large number of votes UKIP achieved in the 2015 election.
It was Nigel Farage who forced David Cameron to agree to the Brexit referendum.
It was Nigel Farage who resigned from UKIP when he saw it was going militant Left.
It was Nigel Farage who formed the Brexit Party and achieved record numbers of 'paid up supporters' with large levels of support from the working class regions of the north.
It was Nigel Farage who forced all parties to include immigration in their manifestos for discussion without being condemned as 'racist'.
It was Nigel Farage and his Brexit party who run away with the EU elections 2019
It was Nigel Farage who always declared 'Country before Party' and decided to not stand Brexit party candidates in Tory constituencies.
It was Nigel Farage who 'won' Brexit.
Arise Sir Nigel
OBE's are for hairdressers, not great political leaders of our time.
I am sorry to say, but time will prove otherwise.
Nigel Farage was bankrolled by a disaster capitalist -Aaron Banks.
Have a think why millionaires would spend lots and lots of money pushing for Brexit.
The answer is is for their benefit not yours or mine.
I notice that you have explained what Nigel Farage has done towards Brexit.
Unfortunately what you havent done is explain exactly what the benefits of brexit actually are.
Unfortunately, the UK is now entering into years of negotiations which at each stage capitulate to the EU, to the US and around the world.
Perhaps you might be able to answer this: you say "It was Nigel Farage who always declared: Country before Party"
I dont quite understand how a brexit that results in a border inside the United Kingdom, which is a de facto break up of the union + a resurgence of interest in Scotish independence, can be classed as putting Country first.
Did you vote for the United Kingdom to be broken up?
when you ticked that box did you vote for the United Kingdom to be just England and Wales?
Aaron Banks funded 'Leave.eu' which is totally separate from the Brexit Party - Nigel Farage has always sought the Electoral Commission to check its books to deny this tired allegation.
Scotland is a member of the UK as confirmed by their own 'Once in a generation referendum'. Brexit is for the benefit of all the UK. If Sturgeon wants a new independence referendum, she can try again after the 2021 Scottish Parliament elections. By then Brexit will be done and dusted with a favorable free trade agreement finalised. The Scots will then appreciate how they will benefit from it and give SNP a bloody nose in their local elections.
We'll soon see Sturgeon demand a 2nd independance referendum before the 2021 election because of the above. Boris will deny the opportunity likewise.
Such as???
N
nauseous
Scotland overwhelmingly voted to stay in the EU, if that means being given no option but to become independent from the UK to remain in the EU then you simply cannot deny them. Good luck when the wrath of the EU get involved! Will pan out nicely for the corporate carpet baggers to hoover up the most valued UK assets . Like taking candy from a baby!
Maybe you should start putting your assets (if you have any) into gold, before the rush! Oh and get a good supply of lube in too. ROFL
