(4 Jul 2016) RESTRICTION SUMMARY: AP CLIENTS ONLY
UK POOL - AP CLIENTS ONLY
London - 4 July 2016
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Nigel Farage, UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader:
"I came into politics from business because I believed that this nation should be self-governing. I have never been and I have never wanted to be a career politician. My aim in being in politics was to get Britain out of the European Union. That is what we voted for in that referendum two weeks ago and that is why I now feel that I've done my bit, that I couldn't possible achieve more than we managed to get in that referendum and so I feel it's right I should now stand aside as a leader of UKIP. I will continue to support the party, I will support the new leader, I will watch the re-negotiation process in Brussels like a hawk and perhaps comment in European Parliament from time to time."
2. Audience applauding at the end of Farage's speech
STORYLINE:
UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Nigel Farage on Monday said he is resigning as the head of the party, arguing his political ambition to have Britain leave the European Union (EU) had now been achieved.
Farage said he will retain his seat in the European Parliament to see out the negotiations for Britain's exit from the EU, following the country's June 23 vote to leave the bloc.
It is the second time Farage has resigned as leader of the party, but he said this time it would be permanent.
