I suppose, being in politics, it wasn't a job - it was almost a calling. It dominated my life, so I do think that probably a lot of people around me have paid quite a big price for that.

Whatever my faults, I have some principles.

I've stood down as UKIP leader. I'm not responsible for these people anymore.

The E.U. referendum was promised by a Conservative Prime Minister fearful of losing votes and of mass defections to UKIP.

This Constitution does not reflect the thoughts, hopes and aspirations of ordinary people. It does nothing for jobs or economic growth and widens further still the democratic deficit.

My vision is to put this country and the British people first and for us to divorce ourselves from political union and re-engage with the rest of the world.

UKIP believe that immigration can be an extremely positive thing. But it has to be controlled.

But there's certainly only one thing I could never agree with George Galloway on. He's a teetotaller and wants to close all the bars in the House of Commons. That is just not on.

There is a debate in Ukip as to how strong we should be on the immigration issue. I personally think we should own it.

The Corbynista brand of politics representing metropolitan, middle class, pro-open border values is far removed from millions of Labour voters, especially those who voted Leave in the referendum.

The great skill of investment is to know when the right time is to get out. Getting in's easy.

I think I am quite a good listener.

I have made comments in favour of British people getting jobs over and above those from southern eastern Europe.

I have known several of the Trump team for years, and I am in a good position with the President-elect's support to help.

We've been very lucky to have UKIP in the U.K. If we hadn't been here, the BNP would be doing very well.

I'd love to tell you that everyone who voted Brexit felt like me about the country, about the Union Jack and the cricket team. But I don't think that there's as much romanticism in it, perhaps, as people think.

The real question is, at the end of the day, do we want to run our country? Are we proud of who we are? Are we happy to be just a star on somebody else's flag, or do we want to be an independent nation?

Let's get real: would any American president seriously open up their borders unconditionally to Mexico as the U.K. has done to the whole of the E.U.? No chance.

I'm quite good at bringing people together.

Either you support the existing global elite, or you want real change and believe in nation-state democracy.

I think that politics needs a bit of spicing up.

It's a European Union of economic failure, of mass unemployment and of low growth.

Puppet Papademos is in place, and as Athens caught fire on Sunday night he rather took my breath away - he said violence and destruction have no place in a democratic country.

Greece isn't a democracy now it's run through a troika - three foreign officials that fly into Athens airport and tell the Greeks what they can and can't do.

If I was a Greek citizen I'd be out there trying to bring down this monstrosity that has been put upon those people.

Minimum sales prices for alcohol are a startlingly bad idea. As with excise duties, the effects are regressive.

The great and the good will decide what is good for us and make sure that we get what is good for us, good and hard.

It's hardly a radical idea to suggest that regulators and legislators understand the law now, is it?

I have been unsure, from the start, what the Occupy movement was all about, although I did suspect that it was just fatuous, anti-enterprise, left-wingery.

It's the FSA and its plethora of EU bodies that's failed.

The banking collapse was caused, more than anything, by bad government policy and the total failure of bad regulation, rather than by greed.

I have become increasingly used to the Tory party mimicking our policies and phrases in a desperate effort to pretend to their members they are still Eurosceptic.

Maybe this will be the beginning of a trend? Flat taxes, cutting foreign aid, a referendum on Europe, grammar schools. Who knows?

British chancellor is telling the rest of Europe it must abandon democracy. It's appalling.

I have invested the best part of my adult political life in helping to try to build up this movement and I am far from perfect but I do think I am able, through the media, to deliver a good, simple, understandable message.

I believe I can lead this party from the front as a campaigning organization.

If an idea is indeed sensible, it will eventually become just part of the accepted wisdom.

Having established that good ideas do indeed come in from the cold, start on the fringes and become mainstream, can we make any predictions about what the next move will be?

Perhaps our own opposition to even the level of European integration we have now, let alone any more, is well known.

I like to think I've changed the centre of gravity on lots of national debates.

That Obama creature - loathsome individual - he couldn't stand our country.

I don't look back at anything. I look forwards.

I can distinctly remember being the only boy in my class whose parents had separated.

There are little games that go on in politics.

There are millions out there who aren't getting an even break. They're being done down.

When you get back control of your country, you get proper democracy. You get back proper debate.

No one did more singlehandedly to smash the BNP in Britain than me.

I judge everybody on the Farage Test. Number one, would I employ them? Number two, would I go for a drink with them?

I believe that the ability to talk to people and have them feeling engaged rather than patronised isn't something you can learn. It's a bit like being able to sing or play cricket. You can either do it, or you can't.

We, as a party, are colour-blind.
