The pint-wielding provocateur burst into national consciousness as a UKIP MEP and later served as the architect of Brexit — y’know, that unmitigated success we’re all so happy about.

Strange as it may seem, this veteran rabble-rouser, gold bullion salesman and part-time MP could soon inhabit 10 Downing Street. As Britain lurches towards an uncertain future, Farage blasts his anti-migrant message on the BBC, GB News … even Cameo.
