Can I just point something out about Farage and his Brexter party?
His politics are identical to both Theresa May's wing of Tories, and the Corbyn wing of Labour

Nigel Farage is the purified and concentrate form of Theresa May's xenophobia and Jeremy Corbyn's antisemitism.

Farage is not saying anything extraordinary. He's only repeating the same racism that's being spewed up by the Tories and Labour.

Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn both keep saying that foreigners are the problem. Corbyn thinks they're undercutting the wages, and May thinks they're undermining the culture.

I think the pair of them are troglodyte racists

If everyone, Tories and Labour, keeps advocating for Brexit, "the will of the people", "Brexit means Brexit"
If everyone keeps saying that over and over, and then it never happens, then Farage is going to turn up asking why.

May and Corbyn, and the entire Tory party, and the entire Labour party, have spent the last three years telling everyone Brexit must happen.
And it hasn't happened, and Farage wants to know why, and millions of voters want to know as well, which is why they're voting for him.

The answer has been staring the country in the face for three fucking years. We haven't left because we can't. Not without destroying the country.
But you haven't confronted anyone with that. I've tried, but I'm a nobody, no one's going to listen to me.

But there's been no political leadership to confront the country with the truth. These are the vacuous delusions of lifelong political ignorami like May and Corbyn, and infantile newspapers like the Guardian and the Telegraph

The referendum was a mistake. But that was one event. The real problem is that you've spent the last three years telling everyone that they can have what they voted for, and they can't.

You're just going to have to treat people like adults for once.
They voted for something, but the nature of our country and our obligations mean that what they voted for cannot be done.

And the Conservatives and Labour both owe you an apology for ever telling you that it could.

Eventually you're going to have to tell people the truth, so you may as well start now. Brexit is impossible.
