You both totally miss the point of the comparison

the comparison is about how people still cannot believe that they backed a loser in a 2 horse race and are still rummaging around for the dummy they spat out

Nobody ever said that. Im calling a spade a spade, you're calling a spade the most magical piece of equipment to ever be created ever.

The man promised a job and the man intentionally quit that job to save his integrity like Johnson and Cameron because he knew the task was too big and too dangerous.

The comparison doesnt make sense though. England could lose on penaltys and theyd lose. Full stop. Either side of the in or out campaign could lose 90:10 in the refferendum and theyd still win because the refferendum is not law biding at all.

The mans a coward and he will not be missed by 75% of the population. The other 25% will always love him regardless of his actions and I find that just a bit sad.

Saying that his job is done once the referendum finished is quite playing dumb.
Leading the Leave campaign is saying "we should leave, put your trust in what I say and I'll lead you safely through it when it happens". If the almighty Farage, who fought for the Leave, can't take carrying on - the message that comes across is problematic.

That is a fair point, it was Boris Johnson that led the leave campaign really.

It is a fact that cannot be disputed however that it is Farage and his efforts who won this referendum in the first place.

No way would any of the other parties have offered one voluntarily.

1. For 17 years Farage has been a lone HONEST voice 'crying in the widerness' trying to warn us and educate us about the corrupt EU and the damage it was doing and is doing to the UK.

2. Like all men of vision, he has suffered 17 years of unwarranted abuse from idiots who cannot see the TRUTH in what Farage was saying, nor beyond the well co-ordinated, unrelenting spin and rhetoric of the ESTABLISHMENT and their multi-National Corporate cronies who have benefited by HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF POUNDS from the EU Gravy Train, and saw Farage as a threat to the continuance of their not-so-little scam.

Twisting Farage's words, painting him as a xenophobic racist, when all he has ever been is a PATRIOT and MAN OF TRUTH, became an industry funded by those above who all have vested interests in 'conditioning' the public into believing that campaign of lies.

BUT - despite everything - the public have a great propensity for the truth, and a lot of them started to see beyond the rhetoric and spin, and simply by WITNESSING what was happening RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEIR EYES in their OWN neighbourhoods, they RECOGNISED that Farage WAS, indeed telling the truth.

Thus, Nigel's Truth gained traction, which led us to the MAJORITY of those who voted, DEMOCRATICALLY electing for the UK to LEAVE the EU CESSPIT.

3. Not being an elected BRITISH MP, and NOT having the power to broker in any of those constitutional imperatives which are mandatory for a prosperous, peaceful, post Brexit Great Britain, Nigel recognised that having almost single-handedly LED THE UK OUT of the EU CESSPIT, his job was done, and it was time to make up for all those lonely years of sacrifice and spend some time with his family.

It is sheer lunacy for ANYONE to accuse Farage of 'quitting and not seeing Brexit through' - Which IDIOT would want RESPONSIBILITY without AUTHORITY - It is a recipe for disaster.

Farage should be lauded and applauded and he ACTUALLY is by the MAJORITY of ordinary working class Britains - who have the intelligence to see beyond the B.S. campaign against him.

His aim was to get a referendum and let the people speak. He did and they have. Job done.

I genuinely do not believe he is racist, i think hes pretty unfairly got that label because many racists were hired for UKIP and the rests of Britains racists support them. But I do not believe he is one.
As far taking responsibility.. yes.. Contrary to the way he behaves, hes a grown up and was a party leader until he pussy footed his way out of it (still would be the leader if OUT lost the campaign). He should not be applauded for quitting. Obviously. He's let a lot of people down.

Especially when the result is such a tiny majority, and the percentage of people that will want to leave will decrease each year that it goes by as well.

What it comes down to is that there was a refferendum and the three main figures of both sides of the campaign are stepping down from responsibility because of the result.

Id imagine more are likely to step down before it gets to October but the three main faces resigning from their presumed posistions should be telling enough.

If you're not at least a tiny but curious about the pattern, you need to sit down and think for a night.
