The brexit party has no policies outside of leaving the EU without a deal. People who voted for brexit are voting for them as a protest. It's pretty transparent that there is nothing more to the party.

The Brexit Party is not just Nigel Farage, there are many well respected and trusted MP's who have joined the Brexit Party, but judging by past experience Farage is not afraid to challenge the European Parliament....

Erm... exactly how many years has nige been an MEP and in that time how much has he done to influence EU policy? Because from what I can see he has done all he can to irritate the EU and nothing to actually change their course or influence them to be acting more in the UK interests. Being an MEP is not about ego but about collaboration with others to bring about what we want for the UK.
Digging deeper when you read into their strategy you will find that the party will lead to the demise of free health, social care, welfare and lead to privatisation. You can forget your state pension, those of you who have one. Low tax does not lead to any kind of NHS provision. Anyone who thinks it does needs a reality check.
All very well living on the MEP salary and all the perks but what value for money do you get from someone who has their own agenda? Sorcerer's apprentice, starting something that is now in chaos and totally out of control. All this proves is that it is amazing where a bit of charisma gets someone. Someone who changes their mind more often than they change their underwear but still convinces people that they have their best interests at heart....

Surely, you're not blaming Nigel for crime spiralling out of control too? I agree, though, that the NHS is being ripped apart by Tory policies.
It's true that the Brexit Party has no policies outside of leaving the EU without a deal, but then they are standing in the EU elections, aren't they? In the EU Parliament they hope to fight our corner on that matter.
When the general election comes along I fully expect the Brexit Party to announce its manifesto, at the same time as other parties announce theirs in fact!
