I had better be careful in pronouncing the end for Nigel Farage. I said on TV in 2014 that in five years’ time we will have forgotten who he was, as Farage himself delights in reminding me. There was no use saying I was 48 per cent right.
There is a chance that he might yet recover from this new donations scandal, that British politics will convulse again and make him look like enough of the answer to enough of the people – maybe little more than 30 per cent of them – to give him a majority in parliament at the next election.
