NIGEL FARAGE pledged to "demand" a seat at the Brexit negotiating table if his Brexit Party won the upcoming European elections next week, claiming a new Prime Minister will "fear" him and leave the EU without a deal.
Speaking to BBC News, the Brexit Party leader argued that with the confirmed departure of Prime Minister Theresa May this summer, a new Tory leader may be "fearful" of the succes of his Party at a future general election and leave the EU without a deal in October. Mr Farageclaimed "no deal will be back on the table" if his Party wins the European elections next week. He said: “If the Brexit Party could win these elections next week and win them well, leaving with no deal is back on the table.
“I’m going to demand that we have representation in those negotiations because we will have a democratic mandate to do so
“And I think Mrs May will have been gone within a few weeks, we may just get a Prime Minister who for fear of the Brexit Party says ‘We’re leaving on October 31 regardless’.”
The Brexit Party is storming ahead in the latest European elections polls as Prime Minister Theresa May faces yet more turmoil and mutiny within her party - and Jeremy Corbyn also facing rejection in the polls.
European elections polls indicate the Brexit Party will win the majority of UK Member of European Parliament seats in the vote on Thursday, May 23.
Theresa May could see devastating losses, as the Conservatives and Labour - along with other establishment parties - could drop seats to Nigel Farage’s campaign.
