NIGEL FARAGE has warned the EU of the dangers of trying to delay or stop Brexit in a stunning speech in the European Parliament, by Cyrus Engineer.

[T]he Brexiteer launched a scathing attack at what he described as the “high priests of European federalism”.

In a passionate speech, Mr Farage was also rebuked by Martin Schultz for calling Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg “quislings” for their refusal to accept the EU referendum result.

Mr Farage lashed out at the European Parliament for failing to properly discuss Brexit, saying: “Basically, you are hoping that we will change our minds.

The Ukip leader told Brussels bureaucrats he knew there was a long tradition in the European Parliament of trying to “ignore or overturn” democratic referendums.

“Frankly the whole thing is a disgrace,” he thundered.

Is Nigel Farage the best thunderer in the world at the moment?

Mocking the EU over its failures to secure a landmark trade deal with Canada he branded the EU as “not fit for purpose” and an outdated concept in the 21st century.
