Speaking at an event marking his 20 years in politics, the UKIP leader predicted the UK would experience a “genuine realignment” and a “big seismic shock” at the next general election. His remarks were made during a glitzy ceremony at the Ritz, where he was joined by fellow Brexiteers and UKIP donors including Arron Banks. Mr Farage began his speech by celebrating Donald Trump’s shocking US election win - but said Britain had a long way to go if it wanted to replicate such a victory.

He said: “There’s one problem we’ve got. In America, the revolution is total. Not only have the people spoken and won but the old administration of Obama and all those ghastly people are out and the Trump people are in and they’re now in control.

“The problem in this country is that while the people have spoken, the same players have just been shuffled around the chess board and we’re still being run by the career, professional, political class.” He did express his hope the UK would experience a huge change over the next few years, claiming those currently in power are not the right people to represent the will of the people.

Mr Farage said: “I’m not sure what’s going to happen over the next couple of years but I suspect there’s another big seismic shock in British politics, perhaps going to come at the next election. “I suspect the Conservative Party is not fit for the legacy of Brexit and I suspect there’s going to be a genuine realignment in British politics over the next three of four years.
