Nigel Farage MEP

It had been obvious from at least the date of the last general election that the honourable Douglas Carswell MP was doing his utmost to damage UKIP.  When I said this few believed me. But the preview of Owen Bennett’s

From the Daily Mail:  Since I announced that I was going to stand aside as Ukip leader in the wake of the successful Brexit campaign, I’ve had more time to do other things. This included a trip to Cleveland for

There is no doubt that UKIP, as the party that brought about the referendum and played a huge part in the Leave side winning, has a great future ahead of it. But the party is in need of huge reform.

Today Theresa May will head for Buckingham Palace to become the UK’s new Prime Minister.   I have to say that the choice of a Remainer and her selection on the grounds of party unity is not particularly to my

After years of being condemned for even daring to suggest that mass immigration was having a negative impact on British society I feel rather less lonely this morning.  Today’s front pages mark a genuine sea change in British politics. The

Just when you thought the government’s record on open door mass migration couldn’t get any more appalling, we’ve seen the bombshell news this week that the situation is even worse than we thought. According to the official figures, migration into

The nasty anti-Semitism now being exposed in the Labour Party has existed for a long time, but is only now really being exposed. As the leader of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), I have for years faced smears and accusations

On Thursday of this week, we expect the Electoral Commission’s decision as to which of the two Leave groups, Grassroots Out Movement (GO) or Vote Leave, gets the designation to run the official campaign. If I judge this purely on the

Despite my best efforts in the European Parliament to embarrass the Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, by pointing out to him that during the revolving six month Dutch presidency of the European Council there is a European Union (EU) referendum

We are nearly a month into the referendum campaign and despite the ‘Remain’ activists – henceforth to be known as the Remainians – having fired every bullet they have, the ‘Leave’ side are holding up well. But now, despite derisory

We are now three weeks into an increasingly confusing European Union referendum campaign. Some of the people I met in Romford market as I toured on Saturday with UK Independence Party (UKIP) Member of the European Parliament Gerard Batten and local Conservative

As the EU referendum campaign heads into week two I can scarcely believe my eyes and my ears. The government, from the Prime Minister down, are using the kind of Project Fear tactics that I might have expected to see

Over the last thirty years the main European story that the media have focused on is Tory splits.  I remember well the Maastricht divisions and the votes in the House of Commons back in 1993. At the time I was

So the battle has been joined and the great fight for the future of our country has begun. On June 23rd we will make the most important political decision in our lifetimes. I am determined to do all that I can

I was surprised that David Cameron accepted the invitation from European President and Euro fanatic Martin Schulz to attend a Conference of Presidents meeting. As I have observed before, there are innumerable Presidents within the European Union (EU) structures. In

I missed Question Time last week having been stuck on the A1 in a huge traffic jam. Fortunately for me the program invited me down to Llanelli to take part in this week’s program. There I was on the panel

Yes it’s true there is a great battle going on between the Westminster-based Vote Leave and the Bristol-based Leave.EU.  I have maintained a studied neutrality on this question for several months now. And I have tried repeatedly to help broker

In the wake of David Cameron’s really rather pathetic little deal – as evidenced by European Council President Donald Tusk’s somewhat derisory letter – the European Union referendum is all over the front pages. I particularly enjoyed the Sun’s front page

The campaign to remain in the European Union is now in full swing. Just this week Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan announced big six figure cheques towards the campaign. No surprise there. The relationship between the big corporates and governments

Don’t believe the spin. The European Union’s drive towards centralisation continues at break-neck speed. This was illustrated just last night when a report – an ultimate EU wish list – was discussed in the European Parliament by the federalist fanatics

Events in Cologne are very shocking to people unless like me you’ve spent the last 17 years spending part of your time working in Brussels. The women there are sadly now molested regularly in certain districts. My assistant in the

British newspapers tend to bury bad news from Brussels on the international pages of their publications. It is as if what happens in Brussels is really not relevant to our lives in the UK. I have railed against this for years, to little

For a long time now I’ve been questioning the government’s migration statistics. Yes, they have frequently shown mass migration at record highs. They have also revealed European Union (EU) migrants to be arriving in increasing numbers. But I think the

Back in October I wrote for Breitbart London about the outrageous way in which Universities for Europe and Universities UK had come out and officially backed European Union (EU) membership. With no consultation, the pitch from rich academic elites was that

When you look at the results from this week it’s clear that with or without postal voting, UKIP would have come second in Oldham West and Royton. But the margin would, without a doubt, have been much slimmer. What we

After British Prime Minister David Cameron’s speech in the House of Commons supporting us bombing Isis positions in Syria, he now appears to have got many sceptics in his own party, such as Crispin Blunt MP, to support him.  It seems

As all high-living Breitbart London readers will know, getting the cork out of a champagne bottle can sometimes be a little tricky. But once achieved it is followed by a rush of bubbles and energy. But if half way through the

Ever since President Obama’s first day when he removed the bust of Winston Churchill from the Oval Office I have wondered: Just how anti-British is Obama? The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico illustrated his contempt for our country

I keep hearing Chancellor George Osborne talking about the creation of a ‘Northern Powerhouse‘. For some time now I’ve been scratching my head and wondering what this really is all about. As with all things Osborne there is some electoral

Yet another European leader summit in Brussels. These meetings now take place so regularly that it is now a substitute for cabinet government at an European Union (EU) level. This time, quite out of the blue, without any rumours or

For the first time in 25 years, the French President and German Chancellor, now Hollande and Merkel, came to address the European Parliament in Strasbourg. The feeling was very different to those days when Kohl and Mitterand, monsters that they

A remarkable though virtually uncommented-upon piece of political propaganda was issued in late July this year. Universities for Europe and Universities UK, who represent 133 higher education institutions, came out with clear, unequivocal backing for the UK to vote to

I have become increasingly impressed with the efforts, energy and ability of Mr Arron Banks and Mr Richard Tice, the co-directors of The Know which this week is re-branded to Leave.EU. They have beneath them experienced professionals and website designers,

Mrs. Merkel’s disastrous decision to say “oh come all ye faithful” has plunged the European Union (EU) into perhaps its worst time yet – the ongoing migrant crisis. After Mr Juncker’s slightly rambling state of the union speech last week, he met

This week in Strasbourg there was Commission President Jean Claude-Juncker’s first State of the Union speech. He did as he said and made an intensely political speech. Most of the focus was on the current migration crisis or as Mr

Over the course of the previous ten years, whenever I’ve gone on national television or radio to discuss immigration figures I’ve always felt that I’ve been met with, at politest, a sneer. At times this has even degenerated into demonisation,
