UK Independence Party leader, Nigel Farage, on Monday announced his resignation from the position and active politics.
He said it was time to leave the scene having achieved his goal of securing a vote for Britain to leave the European Union (EU).
Farage, who led the right-wing party for 10 years, said he was stepping down to focus on his personal life.
He had spent long years campaigning for Britain to exit the EU.
