Nigel Farage, one of the leaders of a campaign to leave the European Union, launched a new Brexit Party on Friday.
Nigel Farage, one of the leaders of a campaign to leave the European Union, launched a new Brexit Party on Friday, promising to put"the fear of God" into lawmakers he accused of betraying Britain's decision to quit the bloc.
After Prime Minister Theresa May secured another delay to Brexit in Brussels this week, parties are now preparing for the European elections despite the government's insistence that Britain could still leave the bloc without having to take part. "I'm doing this because ... I did actually, rather stupidly, for a moment believe that we'd won," Farage said, taking aim at those who campaigned to stay in the EU, or so-called Remainers.
He said his new party had raised more than 750,000 pounds in the first 10 days of its existence and was attracting a pool of leading business people to represent it.
