Nigel Farage, one of the leaders of a campaign to leave the European Union, launched a new Brexit Party on Friday, promising to put “the fear of God” into lawmakers he accused of betraying Britain’s decision to quit the bloc.

In the central English city of Coventry, Farage, 55, whose former party UKIP is credited by many with forcing Britain’s 2016 referendum on EU membership, told supporters his party was fielding an impressive team in next month’s European Parliament elections. […]

“I’m doing this because … I did actually, rather stupidly, for a moment believe that we’d won,” Farage said, taking aim at those who campaigned to stay in the EU, or so-called Remainers.

Cameron and his Remainer crew succeeded in pushing UKIP off the stage. Plus, UKIP was becoming less and less of a party about independence with the various leftists infiltrating it. Who knows where this may go.

Nigel needs to be beware that the corrupt establishment media in England will attempt to destroy the Brexit party with the racist crap.

This is a good thing?

Or did he shoot himself in the foot by backing out of the fight after brexit won instead of staying around to keep the EUsters from diluting, obfuscating, and delaying it?
