His campaign to take the UK out of the EU began as a minority and extreme point of view, but in June 2016 it became the official policy of the nation after a divisive referendum. In Michael Crick's brilliant biography, \u003ci\u003eOne Party After Another\u003c\/i\u003e, we find out how he did it, despite never once managing to get elected to Parliament until 2024.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Farage left public school at the age of 16 to go and work in the City, but in the 1990s he was drawn into politics, \u003cb\u003ejoining UKIP\u003c\/b\u003e. Ironically, it was the electoral system for the \u003cb\u003eEuropean Parliament\u003c\/b\u003e that gave him access to a platform, and he was elected an MEP in 1999. His everyman persona, combined with a natural ability as a maverick and outspoken performer on TV, ensured that he garnered plenty of media attention. His message resonated in ways that rattled the major parties - especially \u003cb\u003ethe Conservatives\u003c\/b\u003e - and suddenly the UK's membership of the EU was up for debate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Controversy was never far away, with \u003cb\u003eaccusations of racism\u003c\/b\u003e against the party and various scandals. But, having helped secure the referendum, Farage was largely sidelined by the successful official\u003cb\u003e Brexit campaign\u003c\/b\u003e. When Parliament struggled to find a way to leave, Farage created the \u003cb\u003eBrexit Party\u003c\/b\u003e to ensure Britain did eventually leave the EU early in 2020. Crick's \u003cb\u003ecompelling study\u003c\/b\u003e takes the reader into the heart of Farage's story, assessing his methods, uncovering \u003cb\u003eremarkable hidden details\u003c\/b\u003e and builds to \u003cb\u003ean unmissable portrait of one of the most controversial characters in modern British politics\u003c\/b\u003e.
