Speaking to the media on Sunday, Farage said that instead of trying to get himself a seat in Parliament he will traverse the length of the UK supporting 600 other candidates. Farage offered Johnson an ultimatum: drop his Withdrawal Agreement and form a “Leave Alliance” or face competition from the Brexit Party for every seat in Britain. Farage says forming a “Leave Alliance” and ensuring the alliance wins a majority of seats in the upcoming election is the only way to achieve Brexit.

Johnson says he not taking Britain out of the EU on October 31 was a matter of “deep regret”, but, insists his Brexit deal is still the only way to take Britain out of the EU.
