Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage wins an EU parliament seat and says he wants his party to be part of Brexit negotiations. More here:
SOUTHAMPTON, England - Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party stormed to victory in a European election, riding a wave of anger at the failure of Prime Minister Theresa May to take the United Kingdom out of the European Union.
Across England and Wales, voters turned away in anger from May’s Conservatives and the opposition Labour Party of Jeremy Corbyn, which had sought a softer version of Brexit. But it will also increase pressure on Labour’s Corbyn to come out explicitly for a second referendum on EU membership. In total, the United Kingdom elects 73 MEPs to the 751-seat parliament. They will not contribute directly to British policymaking on domestic issues like Brexit, but will have a say in EU-wide policy as long as they remain in the assembly.Farage casts Britain’s political system as broken and says parliament and the government are trying to thwart Brexit. He wants the United Kingdom to leave the EU as soon as possible and says the damage of a no-deal departure has been exaggerated.
