Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has said that the Brexit war is over and the UK is “much closer” to leaving the EU after the Conservatives won the General Election.
Speaking in the early hours of Friday morning to Sky News Australia as exit polls predicted a massive majority for the Conservative Party, Mr Farage said: “It’s done. The war is over. It’s finished. We’re leaving.”
After the 2016 referendum, 2017 General Election, 2019 European Parliament elections, and now the December General Election all pointing towards a Leave destination for the UK, Mr Farage declared the Brexit question closed.
However, he said: “Getting Brexit doesn’t end all political arguments. But what it does do, if done properly, take us back to being an independent, democratic, self-governing nation — something we should never have given up way back in the 1970s.
“I fought against this[the EU] for 25 years — much of it on my own — so at least tonight I feel a lot closer.”
“I’m delighted that despite the temptations of some young people to think socialism is attractive — because they’ve never lived under it — that tonight has dealt a death blow to socialism in our country for some decades to come and I’m pleased,” he added.
