NIGEL Farage will rebrand his Brexit Party as the ‘Reform Party’ after Britain finally leaves the EU.
The Brexit Party leader claims his work won’t be done after the nation leaves, and he will still try and stamp his authority on British politics.

Mr Farage vowed to completely change his party, with a change in emphasis and name to the Reform Party.
He said: “It will have to reform into the Reform Party, it’ll have to campaign to change politics for good, get rid of the House of Lords, change the voting system, so much to do.
“Again, you’ll see on Thursday the turnout much lower than the pundits expect because people have lost faith in politics.”
The passionate Brexiteer also claimed to have already registered the new name, and insisted his grouping had already been a success.
He added: “I wanted to stop a second referendum and I think the effect of us standing in the South and the South East would have been two dozen plus Liberal Democrat gains. We’ve stopped that.”
Mr Farage also tore into the Prime Minister over his immigration policy plans, suggesting he could not be trusted on the issue.
He claimed that the PM “has always been very soft on the immigration issue, but you know what, there’s an election on so tell people what they want to hear”.
Mr Farage added: “They’re beginning to say the same things, the problem is they’ll make no real commitment to cut the numbers coming in and this is the fourth Conservative manifesto in a row promising to reduce numbers.”
Despite already planning for after Brexit, the 55-year-old insisted his party could win some seats.
He said: “There are a handful in which we really have a great chance of winning, but our vote could be split by the Conservatives. That’s the battle for the next four days”.
His comments come after three of his MEPs dramatically abandoned his Brexit party one week before polling day.
