In reality, the choice of his name refers to Pope Leo XIII who criticized a mentality that places profit before people and creates extreme inequalities.

It’s so much easier to tear something down than to build something better. Farage will only ever destroy. Because his ideologies don’t work.
They divide, they harm, they cost, they isolate. He doesn’t want a better EU deal.
He *needs* the failure.
His power relies on the anger that creates.
