What the petition asks
Nigel Farage was the driving force behind the UK leaving the EU.
He deserves to be knighted.
He deserves to be knighted.
Nigel spent over 20 years pushing to leave the EU and without the Brexit party standing aside the govt. may not have won the last election with a resounding mandate to leave the EU.
He exposed EU corruption, waste and the levels of illegal immigration.
This govt. and country owe him the recognition he rightly deserves.
