Nigel Farage

It's been a hell of a long journey, this.

I first got involved in Eurosceptic politics 25 years ago, and the first election I contested, I managed to beat the late, great Screaming Lord Such by 164 votes, so I didn't come last.

And now there are 17 million people that voted for Brexit.

It's a victory for ordinary people, decent people.

It's a victory against the big merchant banks, against the big businesses and against big politics.

And I'm proud of everybody that had the courage in the face of all the threats, everything they were told, they had the guts to stand up and do the right thing.

The election was won, in my view, in the Midlands of the North, and I think it was the old Labour vote.

Never been interested in that.

For me, politics is not about... It's not about what I become in terms of a personal status.

It's about what I can do.

Right now, I believe...

I'm the only person that's got sufficient public report and the courage to take on the establishment and do what needs to be done.

Right now, I'm the right person.

May well be in a couple of years' time or more, somebody else comes along who's better equipped.

Right now, I do believe it's me.
