Farage said he did not want anti-Brexit parties to win the election so was standing down candidates in the seats won by the Conservatives in the 2017 election. Farage cast his move as a step that would prevent another EU referendum and make a hung parliament much less likely. He said Johnson was proposing a Brexit that sounded like the option that the British people had voted for in a referendum of EU membership three years ago.
Sterling leapt by more than half a cent against the U.S. dollar which hit a high of $1.2890 as Farage spoke and British government bond prices fell.
lol, Farage never had any leverage to begin with SavingFace
So what is the point of his party? Why not just support the Conservatives running for the other seats instead of splitting their vote?
You have my confidence vote Nigel. Job is half done though,fighting EU to get us here is not enough.
