I’m gutted. I think like Nigel I will take a while out of showing any interest in politics. I think it will be for a far longer period than him.

I’ve always believed he was the last hope for this country.

The referendum will come, and I predict we will vote to stay in, and in the years following that we will almost certainly open our borders to Turkey, Ukraine and god knows who else.

We are finished. I truly hope the scum that have caused this will burn in hell.

Steps down as head of UKIP, but don’t lose the fighting spirit.

Cameron seems too wishy-washy.

Nigel says he is taking the summer off and may consider running in the fall for UKIP leadership.

Wasn’t Farage born in Hawaii? I’m sure we can get a birth certificate to that effect. Just sayin’.

Britain is finished. With Farage defeated, David "There's Too Many White Christian Tory Faces" Cameron will do absolutely nothing to curtail Muslim immigration.

He will be back.

This was the one more chance election for the Tories. They will blow it. Ukip will gain from it.

He is like your version of Ted Cruz, and I agree with your last sentence (for the US, too)!

The establishment won. Britain is finished.

We’ll watch it transition to Mohammedism before our very eyes, as the same as we are forced to transform in to the Latino culture.

And to jerks that accuse racism, I am of Latino heritage. But I am an American. You can perform a physical impossibility.

I have hoped to visit the UK someday while it was normal. By the time it happens if it ever does, I may not want to go.

I can't say I understand the impact because I'm not familiar enough with the parties and British politics.

All I can say is if you are telling me it's bad, I'm worried because whatever is happening over there is just a few months down the road for us here.

Don’t be so discouraged. Nigel’s influence, overall, probably hurt Labor and made it possible for the Tories to win. Never give up, as Churchill would say.

The leftist scum ruining your country are similar to the leftist scum ruining the USA. Without a good purge of this societal cancer, each host will eventually suffer a Roman death.

This can be avoided with the RIGHT leadership. However, there is no guarantee that someone will actually come along and lead.... (Who will be our next Churchill, Thatcher, or Reagan?)

If he were a socialist, I have no doubt he could gain a BC from the State of Hawaii. Just saying’.

He thinks his holiday is ‘well deserved’? Nice to tell yourself that...
