Speaking at the Ukip spring conference in Bolton, he said Mr Blair, who stated today Brexit could still be blocked, was “yesterday’s man”.
He furiously tore into the former Labour leader for suggesting British voters didn’t realise what they were doing when they voted for the UK to leave the European Union.
Mr Farage said: “Blair is yesterdays man. He’s like the heavyweight world champion who needs to come back and make some money but gets knocked out first round.
“At the end of the day Blair will be on the canvas!”
Nigel Farage also warned the political elite more shocks were coming in the next few years.
He said: “I don’t know if 2017 is the year we see dramatic governmental changes in Europe or not.
He said issues like immigration which led to Brexit and Donald Trump’s US election victory would continue to dictate political results.
The former Ukip leader said: “People aren’t interested in arguments about the economy, growth…
“People aren’t interested because they don’t believe what they’ve been told. After our wasn’t our economy meant to fall off a cliff are Brexit?
“People care about national identity, about their community. I would argue people in this country and across the West are beginning to see immigration as a bigger issue than it was even during the referendum. None of this is going away.”
