Farage ridicules ‘arrogant bully’ Tusk after ‘place in hell’ jibe – ‘sounds like heaven’

NIGEL Farage mocked European Council President Donald Tusk for questioning whether there was a “special place in hell” for Brexiteers in a fiery speech on Wednesday.

Nigel Farage has labelled Donald Tusk an “arrogant bully” after the EU chief made a “special place in hell” comment referring to Brexiteers. The European Council President hit out at Brexiteer MP’s for campaigning ”without even a sketch of a plan” of how to carry out Brexit “safely”. Mr Farage tweeted: “After Brexit, we will be free of unelected, arrogant bullies like you and run our own country. Sounds more like heaven to me.”

During a joint press conference on Wednesday alongside Irish premier, Leo Varadkar, Mr Tusk said: “I’ve been wondering what that special place in hell looks like.

“For those who promoted Brexit, without even a sketch of plan how to carry it out safely.”

During the vicious speech, Mr Tusk warned Britain that the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement was “not open for renegotiation” and said he hoped Prime Minister Theresa May came back to Brussels on Thursday with a “realistic suggestion”.

He said: “I hope that tomorrow we will hear from Prime Minister May a realistic suggestion on how to end the impasse in which the process of the orderly withdrawal of the UK from the EU has found itself following the latest votes in the House of Commons.”
