Nigel Farage today predicted that Brexit will be delayed if Theresa May stays on as Prime Minister – after he admitted winding Donald Trump up about the UK’s departure.
The former Ukip leader – a close friend of the President’s – said he thinks ‘the establishment’ will conspire and Mrs May will decide to delay Article 50, which enacts Brexit, later this year.
He also lashed the Tory leader branding her the ‘worst Prime Minister I have seen in my lifetime’.
His remarks, made on Chanel 5’s Wright Stuff, comes after he admitted that he had been winding up the US President over the UK’s departure.
Mr Trump sent the Special Relationship into meltdown today after giving an interview trashing Mrs May’s Brexit plans and killing off hopes of a trade deal.
Mr Farage told the show: ‘May, if she survives, will go to Brussels and Monsieur Barnier, that charming Frenchman, will play for time and there’ll be a panic mid-September, a crisis in mid-September. “Oh, we’ve for for weeks to get this deal sorted, there isn’t time, let’s suspend Article 50.”
‘And when we suspend Article 50, which means we won’t actually leave the European Union treaties on March the 29th next year, if we get to that then the act of betrayal will be there for all to see. There’s going to be massive political ramifications if that happens.’
He said that if the PM clings on to power then she will probably delay Brexit in the autumn.
