'We voted to leave!' Nigel Farage rails against Brexiteer who now wants to REMAIN in EU
NIGEL FARAGE lambasted a former Brexiteer who now wants to stay within the European Union saying the vote was “not a best of three”.
Nigel Farage CLASHES with former Brexiteer caller
The former Ukip leader criticised a radio caller who said he was “changing his mind” and wanted new talks to keep the UK inside the Brussels bloc.
Speaking on his LBC show, Mr Farage was not having any of it and told caller Charles to “wake up and smell the coffee”.
Asked by Mr Farage what he would do if he was in charge, Charles said he would want to negotiate the terms of re-entry with the EU.
Charles said: “We go back to the Commission in Europe and say ‘look, frankly we probably made a mistake, why don’t we sit down and talk about our re-entry'.”
Nigel Farage said radio caller Charles needed to "wake up" over Brexit
It’s happening, we’ve got to leave. The only debate Charles is the terms on which we do it
The comments provoked fury and Mr Farage hit back saying: “No, Charles. You’re going to ruin my weekend.
“We voted to leave, we’re going mate. Come on you’ve got to wake up and smell the coffee.
“It’s happening, we’ve got to leave. The only debate Charles is the terms on which we do it.”
Charles then admitted he had voted for Brexit but was no longer happy with his decision.
He said: “I did vote Brexit I have to admit. I’m sorry I did now. I’m changing my mind."
But Mr Farage refused to accept the u-turn and said a vote was a vote.
The LBC radio host said: “A lot of people who might have voted for Theresa May or Jeremy Corbyn a few weeks ago might have changed their minds.
“This referendum Charles wasn’t the best of three, was it?”
Meanwhile, Mr Barnier has threatened to stall Brexit negotiations following the ongoing row over demands for a multi-billion divorce fee.
Rudd: New migration policy will work for whole of UK
It emerged on Wednesday the eurocrat told ambassadors from the 27 other EU nations that the next round of discussions on the UK's departure from the bloc could be postponed.
He was said to be plotting to suspend meetings with EU Exit Secretary David Davis for two months following British refusal to discuss his proposed severance fee.
The move would shatter hopes of beginning work on a future UK-EU trade deal in the autumn, according to European Union sources.
