Downing Street has already said there is no reason for Farage’s remarks, but the former leader of UKIP left sharp criticism for the Conservative government that carried out the operation.
Nigel Farage, speaking on TV, where he now works as a commentator, said farming was one of the only bright spots taken away from Brexit, and that the rest of the process had been mismanaged by politicians since Brexit in 2020. .
Despite continuing to argue that the UK has nothing to gain from remaining in the EU, Farage believes the gains after leaving are minimal. He declared that “what Brexit has proven, I fear, is that our politicians are as useless as the commissioners in Brussels”.
“This situation was completely lost,” he stressed, adding that the increase in corporate taxes, last April, shows that many companies are fleeing the United Kingdom and that this type of management was more stringent than that carried out by the European Union.
He was blunt in his criticism: “Brexit has failed.”
Faced with the prospect of returning to politics, Nigel Farage does not rule out the possibility but says he has no immediate interest in the matter. “We didn’t solve the problem at the border, we didn’t get Brexit done, and the Tories let us down.”
Faced with these statements, Rishi Sunak’s government has strongly rejected Farage’s words. A Downing Street spokesperson said: “I think the prime minister has spoken of the benefits Brexit has brought on a number of occasions.”
One example of the advantages of farming [pós-Brexit] “It’s the use of technology that clones crops and makes them more productive for farmers and the wider population,” the spokesperson said during a summit with food chain distributors in the UK.
