The former Ukip leader said a “huge scale disappointment” could prompt him to change his mind on working towards becoming the leader of the UK. Speaking on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories, the MEP spoke about his plans for the future and said seeing out Brexit was his main priority. “I’ve got to see the Brexit process through,” he told the ITV show. “We’ve won the war but we must win the peace. “I will see out my time in the European Parliament so I’ll be there until the spring of 2019, I still lead a group in the European Parliament so I still want to go there regularly to make my helpful, constructive suggestions and speeches.”

Asked whether he could ever envisage a situation where he was Prime Minister, he said: “I’ve never thought of myself as that, no. “I think it’s unlikely but what Brexit showed, what 2016 showed, is that all of the old certainties are out of the window.” Morgan probed further and asked the Brexiteer if he would like to be Prime Minister. Mr Farage replied: “Not really, no. This country would have to go through disappointment post-Brexit on a huge, huge scale. If this political class let us down on Brexit, then anything can happen.”
