EU chief Jean-Claude Juncker has blamed Brexit on 40 years of 'lies' by British politicians.

The European Commission president said the UK's historic vote to leave the EU showed 'something was wrong in Britain'.

He admitted Europe was partly at fault for the vote but said people 'cannot be surprised' that voters backed Brexit because for decades politicians in the UK had circulated 'half-truths' and had branded the EU 'stupid'.

Responding to his remarks, Ukip MP Douglas Carswell dismissed the EU bureaucrat as a 'parasitical clown,' telling MailOnline: 'Herr Juncker'sarrogant disdain for the views of the British people beautifully explains why we were right to leave'.

He’s partly right: the politicians lied (for much longer than 40 years). The British people got fed up with the lies and the mega-bureaucracy that resulted.
