Nigel Farage for Top Gear? Here’s what the ex-Ukip leader could do next

Nigel Farage, the Ukip leader who campaigned for Britain to leave the EU, has resigned from his party after saying he “couldn’t possibly achieve more.”

Sure, he might have reached the height of ambition in Ukip, but what about all the other things he could “achieve” with a bit more spare time on his hands?

Here are some very sensible options for Farage’s new career. And then, as he’s prone to doing, he can come back to politics in a couple of years!

How about a duo with Matt Le Blanc?

#TopGear gets its lowest-ever rating. Farage and Boris find themselves unexpectedly available for work. #Coincidence?

Perhaps some glitzy ballroom dancing? Happy Valley actor Vincent Franklin put this image of Farage’s fake tan in our brains…

Farage will be on Strictly Come Dancing by Christmas!

Stranger things have happened in the Celebrity Big Brother house. Ahem, George Galloway…

Wonder how long it'll be before @Nigel_Farage turns up in the Celebrity Big Brother house #CBB

Maybe he’d prefer his own island nation?

In all seriousness though @Nigel_Farage, what's next?

Watch this space. Or, you know, just wait for Farage: The Return Part II. Everyone loves a sequel right?

*starts the "Has Nigel Farage un-resigned yet?" clock*
