Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party soars in the polls as he vows to bring down Labour flip-floppers

NIGEL Farage's new Brexit Party is soaring in the polls as he vows to kick out Labour's flip-flopping MPs.

One in six Brits would vote for the Eurosceptic party in a General Election, according to a new survey.

The result would make the Brexit Party Britain's third largest, behind only the Tories and Labour.

Mr Farage is adamant his party will come top in the European Parliament elections scheduled to take place next month.

In a new interview he hit out at Labour figures such as Yvette Cooper who have U-turned on their past promise to back Brexit.

He : "She told people in Pontefract that she would honour the result of the referendum, yet she has now spent the last two years doing everything she can to undermine that result and reverse that result.

Labour are now a nailed-on Remainer party

"This is literally a kick in the teeth for Labour voters.

"The truth is Labour are now a nailed-on Remainer party."

So far the Brexit Party has drained more support from the Tories than Labour but Mr Farage has vowed to go after Jeremy Corbyn's party too.

A new poll released by Opinium today shows Labour and the Brexit Party tied on 28 per cent for the Euro elections, with the Conservatives trailing far behind.

And in a General Election, Mr Farage's outfit would win 17 per cent with Labour on 33 per cent and the Tories on 26 per cent.

The party boss told The Sun this week that his new party would take part in the next General Election regardless of the outcome of Brexit.

Another poll carried out by YouGov gives the Brexit Party a large lead in the EU elections, on course to pick up more seats than the Conservatives and Labour combined.

Ex-minister Nick Boles compared the top Brexiteer to the Night King from Game of Thrones, saying: "They are both poised to inflict imminent extinction on the potentates holed up in Winterfell and Westminster."

He warned that if Labour and the Tories fail to come up with a compromise deal within two months, the Brexit Party will only grow in strength.
