NIGEL FARAGE today sensationally suggested holding a SECOND EU Referendum – to “finish off” arch Remainers Tony Blair and Nick Clegg.In a stunning U-turn, the former Ukip leader said “just maybe” he was reaching the point of backing a re-run of the 2016 Brexit vote.He told Channel 5’s The Wright Stuff: “What is for certain is that the Cleggs, the Blairs, the Adonises will never ever ever give up - they will go on whinging and whining and moaning all the way through this process.“So maybe, just maybe, I am reaching the point of thinking that we should have a second referendum on EU membership.” He insisted the proportion backing Brexit would be higher than the 52 per cent who voted Out in 2016.He said: “I think we had a second referendum on EU membership we’d kill it off for a generation."The percentage that would vote to leave next time would be very much bigger than it was last time round, and we may just finish the whole thing off and Blair can disappear into total obscurity.” After his appearance on TV, Mr Farage tweeted: "Maybe, just maybe, we should have a second referendum on EU membership.It would kill off the issue for a generation once and for all." Lord Malloch Brown, the ex-minister who chairs anti-Brexit group Best for Britain, said in response: "A second referendum: my message is clear - bring it on."This is something that the country needs.Every day we see the disaster of Brexit it as we see its impact on our economy, jobs, communities and our society."With these comments Nigel Farage is disowning the chaos that trying to leave the EU has wrought on this country." Most of those calling for a second referendum are Remainers such as Lord Adonis and the Lib Dems.But Dominic Cummings, the boss of the Vote Leave campaign, has previously suggested holding a public vote on the terms of the final Brexit deal once it is revealed.Mr Farage, who has been an MEP since 1999, has resigned as Ukip leader four times.This week he met the EU's main Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier in Brussels for talks where he claimed to represent voters who backed Leave in the 2016 referendum.
