Mr Brexit steps back into front-line politics

Nigel Farage to lead Reform Party into general election

Pro-Brexit campaigner and politician Nigel Farage has announced he will lead the right-wing Reform Party as a candidate in Britain's general election.

Farage, who was a key figure in the campaign for Brexit, said he was "determined to give the British people a choice" in the upcoming election.

The Reform Party is a new political party that was founded in 2019 by Farage and other former members of the UK Independence Party (UKIP). The party's policies are based on the principles of free markets, low taxes, and limited government intervention in the economy.

Farage's decision to stand as a candidate in the general election is a significant development in British politics. It is likely to further divide the vote on the right, which could benefit the Conservative Party. However, it is also possible that the Reform Party could appeal to voters who are dissatisfied with the Conservative Party's handling of Brexit.

The general election is scheduled to be held on December 12, 2019.
