Nigel Farage jeered and booed as he tells MEPs they are 'in denial' over Brexit (The Telegraph)
UKIP leader Nigel Farage was jeered by the European Parliament after he told MEPs that they were "in denial" about Brexit and that they had "never had a proper job before".
His astonishing speech at a special meeting of the European Parliament today ended with boos echoing through the Brussels chamber.
Mr Farage used his speech to declare that Brexit was "a beacon of hope" to other member states but he also infuriated MEPs when he said: "Now, I know that virtually none of you have ever done a proper job in your lives or worked in business or worked in trade or indeed ever created a job. But listen, just listen."
