About Ferage

Farage was ranked second in The Daily Telegraph's Top 100 most influential right-wingers poll in 2013, behind Prime Minister David Cameron. Farage has been described as a "personality" and "a bon viveur, smoker and drinker with a touch of the aristocrat about him". He is known for his speeches at public events such as party conferences, which are often controversial. A former commodities trader who headed an investment banking division of Barclays de Zoete Wedd (BZW) before becoming involved in politics, he is noted for his plain speaking style; according to Politico's EU Confidential podcast: "[he] says things that other people are thinking ... but aren't saying." Nigel Paul Farage (; born 3 April 1964) is a British broadcaster and former politician who was Leader of the UK Independence Party from 2006 to 2009 and 2010 to 2016 and Leader of the Brexit Party from 2019 to 2021. He was Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for South East England from 1999 until the United Kingdom's exit from the EU in 2020.
