The UKIP leader blasted Europe's stoney-faced elite with a rousing speech decrying their bid to trample over democracy in a grasping bid for more power. Arch Eurocrats Donald Tusk and Jean-Claude Juncker looked on with ashen faces as Mr Farage tore into the Brussels project, telling them they may win the battle over the Dutch 'no' vote but they will lose the war.

He predicted a people's resolution will bring about the downfall of the EU elite, telling the European Parliament it "won't survive" a resurgence in democracy brought about by new technology. His stunning intervention came amid growing anger over Brussels' dismissive response to the Dutch referendum last week.

Mr Tusk chewed furiously on his lip as the UKIP leader furiously rebuked senior Eurocrats, who had up to that point avoided even mentioning the landmark result. Just under two-thirds of the Dutch people voted to reject a land grab plot with Ukraine designed to extend the EU's tentacles of power into Kiev and beyond. But within hours of the result being announced they had already been betrayed by both their own Government and the EU elite, who announced their intention to plough ahead with key parts of the deal including plans to open up the Schengen zone to 45 million Ukrainians. During the first sitting of the EU Parliament since the Dutch vote earlier today Mr Farage delivered a blistering response to Eurocrats, telling them the result shows their days are severely numbered. He also said that the emergence of the Internet will ultimately bring about the demise of the EU, citing the fact that Dutch bloggers GeenPeil were behind the 420,000-strong petition which secured last week's historic referendum.

In the end the people's will is going to prevail. This place won't survive Nigel Farage

Sitting behind a miniature Union Jack flag he told the chamber: "We're here in what I've been told repeatedly is the home of European democracy, so surely we could've taken the opportunity this morning to celebrate the Dutch referendum last week, in which the people said no to EU enlargement, no to the deal with the Ukraine and no doubt had it been Turkey an even bigger number of people would've said no to Turkish accession. "It was a victory for democracy. It was a victory as well for direct democracy. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the new politics. "We were told by Mr Juncker that if the Dutch voted no it would be a disaster, but he hasn't mentioned it today. Indeed your predecessor Mr [Herman] Van Rompuy - my old mate - says we should just ignore the Dutch and carry on blithely. "So what we're seeing is the big battalions of vested self-interest doing their best to completely ignore the will of the Dutch people. Well, I think things are changing - I don't believe these institutions can survive 21st century technology. "I think the will of the people is changing politics in a way that makes all of you in this room deeply fearful, and so you should be."
