Nigel Farage calls for second referendum on Brexit

Nigel Farage has called for a second referendum on Britain’s membership of the EU.

The former Ukip leader and Brexit campaigner said he was confident a new vote on the issue would “kill off” the debate.

“I’m reaching the point of thinking that we should have a second referendum on EU membership,” he told Channel 5’s The Wright Stuff.

“I think if we had a second referendum on EU membership, we’d kill it off for a generation. The percentage that would vote to leave next time would be very much bigger than it was last time, and we may just finish the whole thing off.”
