Nigel Farage, the leader of the UKIP party and the man who lead the Leave campaign has stepped down as UKIP leader. In a statement read within the last few minutes, Nigel simply days he wants his life back.

The statement reads:
,”I have decided to stand aside as leader of Ukip. The victory for the leave side in the referendum means that my political ambition has been achieved. I came into this struggle from business because I wanted us to be a self-governing nation, not to become a career politician.

Ukip is in a good position and will continue, with my full support to attract a significant vote. Whilst we will now leave the EU the terms of our withdrawal are unclear. If there is too much backsliding by the government and with the Labour party detached from many of its voters then Ukip’s best days may be yet to come.”
