Nigel Farage’s newly formed Brexit Party could win the European Union parliamentary election on May 23, if new polling data from YouGov is accurate. The surging Brexit Party appears to be taking votes from a combination of Brexit-supporting Conservatives (a.k.a. Tories) and Labor voters as well as the United Kingdom Independence Party, UKIP or Ukip, which for various reasons has lost market share.

U.K. Conservative in Name Only Prime Minister Theresa May promised 100-plus times that the country would leave the European Union on schedule on March 29, which would have eliminated the need for the country to participate in the EU election at all.

May subsequently postponed the departure date several times, which is now extended to October 31. In a further sell out of the electorate that voted for Brexit, May and the Remainer-dominated parliament have stubbornly ruled out a no-deal Brexit even though May’s deal failed to pass the House of Commons three times. May is the same duplicitous politician who repeatedly vowed that no deal is batter than a bad deal.

A clean or no-deal Brexit would allow Britain as a country independent of the EU to immediately engage in international commerce under World Trade Organization rules.

May’s Brexit in Name Only deal, a “surrender document,” effectively relegates the U.K. to non-member status in the EU yet still subject to its bloated bureaucracy and heavy handed rulebook, which includes open borders.

As leader of UKIP in 2014, Farage’s party stunned the London-centric media and political establishment when it won the EU elections, an unprecedented achievement for a third-party in the U.K.

From the Daily Mail:

“The Brexit Party has surged into the lead in the race for the European Elections after a top pollster predicted Nigel Farage’s new party could win its first election.

“A second YouGov survey on the state of the party’s ahead of EU Parliament elections shows the Brexit Party rising dramatically from 15 per cent to 27 per cent.

“Most of the gain comes at the expense of Ukip – which when led by Mr Farage won the 2014 contest – which plunged from 14 per cent to 7 per cent.

“Labour falls to second place on 22 per cent, down two, and the Tories are now third on 15 per cent.

The sensational new result comes after YouGov Political Research Manager Chris Curtis said it was ‘entirely plausible’ Mr Farage could upset conventional wisdom about new parties to top the poll.

Mr Curtis said a combination of a weak Tory party and Mr Farage’s direct attack on Ukip’s drift toward the hard right would all help the Brexit Party.

“Adding to the trouble for Theresa May’s party are fears of a ‘donor strike’ amid fury at the Prime Minister’s handling of Brexit.

“The elections on May 23 are only happening at all because the deal Mrs May negotiated with Brussels has been defeated three times by MPs.”

“Incredibly, the YouGov poll shows that 55% of Leave voters are already planning to vote for the Brexit Party, as are 49% of Conservative 2017 voters. Just 34% of 2017 Tory voters are planning to vote Conservative at the EU Elections, whilst 10% of Labor voters are planning to vote Brexit as well,” Westmonster observed.

“The Brexit Party’s 12% jump is sending a shockwave around Westminster, meanwhile the explicitly anti-Brexit parties have only mustered 25% between them,” the Guido Fawkes blog added.

Serving in the EU parliament since 1999, Nigel Farage, the man who championed the Brexit referendum against fierce opposition from virtually the entire globalist political establishment, is perhaps the world’s best orator.
