Nigel Farage: Member of the European Parliament (MEP) & Founding Member of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) – Nigel is MEP for the South East region and is the leader of the parliamentary party in the EU parliament.

He has worked for British, French and American companies operating in the commodity markets, especially the London Metal Exchange (since 1982).

The central aim of the party is the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union and to regain control of this nation’s governance through our own Parliament at Westminster.

Nigel was a Conservative activist from his schooldays until the overthrow of Margaret Thatcher; John Major’s signing of the Maastricht Treaty brought his membership to an end.
