In a significant boost for Prime Minister Boris Johnson ahead of a December 12 election, Farage said he does not want anti-Brexit parties to win the election.
Farage said he will work to take all of the seats now held by the Labor Party, who have completely broken their 2017 manifesto. He said he intends to prevent a second referendum from happening.
