And I want a pony but that’s not realistic either.

I don’t like the guy, but indeed he is being taken out of context if you read the full interview. What Farage means is that Brexit is not happening the way he wants it to happen. He wants more trade deals, stricter immigration, and leaving the obligations from international rules like the ECHR.

I see, he’s as realistic about politics as a 5 year old. Farage - “I want all the nice things, with none of the obligations and without giving anything in return”. That’s the mindset of a child who wants allowance but without mowing the lawn.

That pretty much summed up the entire brexit mindset. “We already have one of the sweetest EU deals, but we want only good stuff and no bad”

Indeed, he’s an idiot.
People are afraid if he becomes prime minister. The thing is he’s a harmless idiot because he is all complain and rhetoric without offering any specific plan on how to implement them. Should he come to power, it’s just going to be whatever the hell happens. His potential leadership will end up collapsing like the far right tenure in Sweden, Finland and The Netherlands. Farage never really have had any significant leadership experience, because he spent most of his career beating the drum but never leading the band.
But from my personal perspective, his premiership, if he does become PM and even if it fails, will set precedence and open the floodgate to a cleverer authoritarian demagogue that could plunge UK to a full fascism. I think most people are short sighted about the snowball effect of current actions.

That does sound like every neoliberal politician in Europe right now.

Neoliberal politicians do have plans, but it is for the benefit of the rich.
