Conservative response to Nigel Farage admitting he could derail Brexit

Responding, James Cleverly MP, Chairman of the Conservative Party, said:

“A vote for Farage risks letting Jeremy Corbyn into Downing Street via the back door - and the country spending 2020 having two referendums on Brexit and Scottish independence.  It will not get Brexit done - and it will create another gridlocked Parliament that doesn’t work.”
