And, you know, obviously the UK coming out of the European Union.

The Brexit party, UKIP, which he was a founding member of.
The Brexit referendum has defined him so far.
And I think you could argue that he is the most consequential British politician of this century, given what he has achieved in terms of delivering Brexit and the absolute disaster Brexit has been for Britain and the British people.

He came to Ireland.
He was campaigning against the Lisbon Treaty.
And funnily enough, Irish people didn't like this posh, well-educated Brit telling Irish people what to do.
