		</div><p>Nigel Farage has said the &#8220;political revolution&#8221; that swept Brexit and Donald Trump to victory will reverberate through Europe, as he warned that concerns over immigration are here to stay.</p>
<p>The former Ukip leader said there has been a fundamental &#8220;change in public attitudes&#8221; towards politicians and the media.</p>
<p>And he predicted that the populist wave of discontent in Britain and the US will usher in change &#8220;across the entire Western world&#8221;.</p>
<p>Speaking at the party&#8217;s spring conference, he said 2016 &#8220;is one of those years that children will read about in history books in 100 or 200 years&#8217; time&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;Political revolution in the United Kingdom, huge &#8211; a word he (Mr Trump) uses quite a lot &#8211; huge political revolution in America, and of course we saw, in December, the Italians getting rid of their prime minister in a referendum,&#8221; Farage said.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was a year of political revolution, and the most remarkable thing about it is it was all started by Ukip.&#8221;</p>
<p>He dismissed critics who say the discontent &#8220;is nothing more than a blip&#8221; and that Britain will wake up and &#8220;come back from our collective senses across the Western world and return to that comfortable, midway 1990s consensus&#8221;.</p>
<p>He added: &#8220;I have to tell you, I am now absolutely certain that the political revolution of 2016 was actually just the beginning of something very much bigger that is going to happen across the entire Western world.</p>
<p>&#8220;The change in public attitudes towards politics, towards the political class, towards large sections of our establishment liberal media &#8211; those changes in attitudes are absolutely fundamental. Far from receding, they are brewing with every month that goes by.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mr Farage said immigration is a bigger concern for UK voters today than during the EU referendum campaign.<br />
&#8220;People aren&#8217;t interested in arguments about the economy, in arguments about growth, in arguments politicians make about jobs, they are not interested. And do you know why? Because they simply don&#8217;t believe what they are being told.</p>
<p>&#8220;After all, wasn&#8217;t our economy going to fall off a cliff if we voted for Brexit?<br />
&#8220;What people care about is national identity, what people care about is their community.</p>
<p>&#8220;And I&#8217;ll argue that people in this country and across the West are now beginning to see immigration as a far bigger issue than they even saw it during the referendum campaign last year.<br />
&#8220;None of this is going away.&#8221;</p>
