recognition,A believes party can win election"

policies, policing and justice"

"EXCLUSIVE: Nigel Farage told Fox News Digital that mass migration has radically changed the country's makeup. The Reform UK leader argued that BritainAs political system is "completely broken" following Prime
Minister Keir Starmer's resignation.

Farage is calling for a new general election, predicting his party has
"every chance of winning."

Speaking exclusively from the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship
conference in London this week, a forum focused on debates over culture, Western civilization and Judeo-Christian values, Farage said StarmerAs downfall was not an isolated political event, but the latest aftershock
of the Brexit revolt that upended British politics a decade ago.

"Ten years ago yesterday, we had a political earthquake in Britain. It
was called Brexit," Farage said. "And the two old parties have never
quite adapted to it."

Farage, one of the most prominent figures behind the Brexit campaign and
now leader of Reform UK, has long argued that BritainAs political establishment failed to deliver on votersA demands for tighter borders
and greater national sovereignty.

Starmer announced his resignation Monday, paving the way for Britain to
have its seventh leader in a decade. Reuters reported on June 24 that
Andy Burnham appeared positioned to succeed him, with the Labour
leadership contest expected to begin July 9.

Farage said StarmerAs defeat was sealed in local elections earlier this
year, when Reform UK made sweeping gains in former Labour strongholds.
Farage said those voters were the same people who powered Brexit and that immigration remained central to their anger.

"All of those were Brexit voters," he said. "Starmer wants to take us
closer back to the EU. But one of the reasons we voted Brexit was
immigration and border controls. So, the votes certainly did him harm."

He said StarmerAs reported strained relationship with President Donald
Trump was not the direct cause of his resignation but added that it contributed to the image of a leader who had lost control.

"I donAt think the breakdown of his relationship with Donald Trump
impacted directly," Farage said, "but it was part of a picture of a prime minister whoAd lost control."

Farage then delivered one of his sharpest assessments of BritainAs
political instability.

"And can you believe it, but when Mr. Burnham becomes our next prime
minister, itAll be our sixth prime minister in seven years," he said.
"So, our political system is completely broken."

He argued that Burnham, if he entered Downing Street through a Labour leadership contest rather than a national election, would lack a public mandate.

"I donAt even know what his policies are. Literally, I donAt," he said.

"So, I think, for all of those reasons, there ought to be a general
election and a fresh mandate," he added. "And I certainly think Reform
would have every chance of winning. Yes, I do."

Farage also used the interview to cast BritainAs political turmoil as
part of a broader Western crisis over borders, national identity and traditional values. He delivered a warning for Americans, saying the U.S. should avoid what he described as mistakes Britain made in diversity
policies, policing and justice and immigration.

"Mass migration has changed this country, certainly in many of our
cities, literally beyond recognition," he said. "WeAve not been selective about whoAs been able to come into the country. That is a major
contributory factor.

"I think the pendulum has swung so far in the DEI direction," he said,
"and we finished up, no doubt, in this country, with two-tier policing,
with two-tier justice.

"My message to Americans is that political change is coming," he said.
"All of this nonsense will get reversed."

"But, also, weAve just lost our way," he continued. "Our leaders do not
want to stand up and defend any sense of traditional values."

Asked about the relationship with the United States, Farage said he
believes Britain should move closer to America, particularly on trade and financial services.

"My whole adult life has been closely intertwined with the United States
of America," he said, noting that his first job in 1982 was with the Wall Street firm Drexel Burnham Lambert.

"I think I can get on well with American leaders," he said. "I hope and believe they can get on well with me."

Farage said the two countries remain bound by investment, language and culture.

"You are the biggest foreign investor in Britain, and weAre still just
about the biggest foreign investor in America," he said. "And we share so much, not just language, but culture and so much else.

"I really believe that a closer relationship with America, particularly breaking down some of the trade barriers in financial services, as an
example, would be really good for both of us."

Farage also dismissed any serious push to take Britain back into the
European Union.

"The price of going back into Europe would be giving up the currency,
paying a massive membership fee every year," he said. "So, no, there is
no demand for it, other than those stuck in the Westminster bubble who
seem to be obsessed by it."

As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Farage framed the American Revolution as a predecessor to the Brexit movement he championed.

"America was the first Brexit," he said. "You struck out on your own, the first Brexit, and you became the most successful country in the world."
