# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Nigel Paul Farage was born 3 April 1964 and spent 14 years in the Conservative Party before breaking away in 1992. Elected to the European Parliament in 1999, he led UKIP through two stints—2006 to 2009, then 2010 to 2016—transforming it from sideshow to pressure lever. UKIP's surge at the 2014 European election helped force David Cameron to call the 2016 EU membership referendum. After that vote passed, Farage resigned, then co-founded the Brexit Party in 2018 when withdrawal stalled; renamed Reform UK in 2021, it won the most UK votes at the 2019 European election. He returned as Reform leader in 2024, won the Clacton seat, and has since watched his party lead national polls and sweep local elections in 2025 and 2026.
