Nigel Farage has called for a second referendum on EU membership following a huge public backlash since the referendum.
The former UKIP leader, who was a key architect of the first referendum, made the extraordinary admission in an interview on the Wright Stuff show.
He said: “My mind is actually changing on this.
“What is for certain is that the Cleggs and the Blairs will never ever give up.
“They will go on whinging and whining and moaning all the way through this process.
“So maybe, just maybe, I’m reaching the point of thinking that we should have a second referendum on EU membership.”
Maybe, just maybe, we should have a second referendum on EU membership. It would kill off the issue for a generation once and for all. https://t.co/FQxniMi5MA

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
