Brexit's back? Nigel Farage says renegotiation 'will take place next year' | LBC

Nigel Farage spoke to Nick Ferrari this morning after announcing yesterday that he would stand in July's general election to become an MP. He also takes over as leader of Reform UK, from Richard Tice.

He says he had a 'terrible sense of guilt that he was letting down' people, who he says, wanted to see him run.

Mr Farage, who was a vocal leader of the Vote Leave campaign, tells Nick Ferrari that Brexit will be renegotiated next year.

Is that not the guy that said he would leave the UK if Brexit failed ?

Renegotiate How...You're not even in the Union and have nothing to negotiate with.

[louis-philippearnhem]

Don’t count on a renegotiation. You’re not that special anymore. You had the best deal before 2016 with exemptions, exceptions and opt-outs. It was never enough and it would never be enough. The EU is no colony of yours.

[JohnnyinMN]

Renegotiate? England has nothing to offer. Unfortunately, no one has a desire to buy hopes and dreams.

So an ex-member of a golf club is going back to the golf club to renegotiate his membership fee… ( that he doesn’t pay anymore )

[elipa]

Lol. There will be no renegotiation. The EU wont negotiate with a country that left the EU. Why should the EU do this? The UK made its bed and now has to lie in in.

[EPIPHANY]

Great news ❤ Brexit was a waste of time ...sick of made in china products..

[tcqbstd]

Fact check. I just looked at a list of world's largest exporters and UK doesn't even appear in the top DOZEN.

[dilyu]

Farage talking about the issues with migration? I thought Brexit was supposed to stop the immigration 😂

[JayAndNightASMR]

The sad thing is that all the right wingers are eating it up.

[Paul_C]

How is Ferrari sprouting his nonsense?

[lucasmoreno]

Oh FFS, he's still going on about his failed Brexit.

[chrisashton]

There is no renegotiation, you’ve left, it’s done.
The EU have other things you do, and no reason to negotiate

[cehaem]

Hypocrite. No second referendum because we already had one but wants to negotiate the terms with the EU for the third time.

[nettcologne]

The UK is not even in the top 10 when it comes to exports, ranking 13th behind Belgium.

[brendanpells]

Some people are measured as being succesful by the things they create for the benefit of everyone. People like Farage, who's only real talent is self-promotion, measure their success by what they can destroy, without any idea of what to replace it with.

[bigtastyforlife]

Trump got convicted and the MAGA gravey train is uncertain. So Nigel is back in UK politics. What a patriot.

[yojimbo]

Erm, Donald Trump's conviction makes campaigning for him rather less appealing.

[scarfhs]

The question on the Brexit referendum ballot paper was purely about leaving or remaining in the EU. All the other things people may or may not have thought they were voting for were not on the ballot.

[Defuse__]

I'd love to see the shortlist Nick gets for guests. I just imagine he closes his eyes, chants "shill shill shill", kisses his framed photo of Margaret Thatcher and suddenly a Tory or reform politician appears in front of him with a microphone.
