No mercy.
Nigel Farage has stepped down as leader of UKIP following last month’s vote for Britain to leave the European Union. The controversial politician has now resigned from the party on three different occasions but he has said that today’s decision to leave is definite having achieved his political ambition.
Farage was instrumental in rallying support for the ‘Leave’ campaign and his decision to resign at such an uncertain time for Britain’s political future has been heavily criticised on Twitter.

News that Nigel Farage is stepping down as leader of UKIP. Thought he did that after the election.

Now Farage (like Boris) won't need to trouble himself with the details of the next few years. Brexit, then bugger off.

Please @mcgregor_ewan, a nation waits for your thoughts on Nigel Farage quitting. No asterisks this time, please.

Farage says 'finally the real me can come out' seconds before shedding his human skin and becoming a gigantic racism lizard.

For our collective sanity as a nation, can we all agree not to give Farage a TV show, a radio show or a newspaper column?

Unfortunately Farage is as untrustworthy and inconsistent on retirement as he is on everything else.

Farage’s decision to leave has created an opportunity for others to fill the leadership void.
