He has spent the last few months solidly campaigning for Britain to withdraw from Europe.

But it seems UKIP leader Nigel Farage has finally been won over by the Continent - at least if this video is to be believed.

A holiday company has poked fun at the anti-Europe MEP by taking his speeches and turning them into a declaration of his love for holidays abroad.

Change of tone: Nigel Farage is an advocate for pulling out of Europe, but appears to change his mind in the video

 

Nigel Farage LOVES to go on holiday in Europe

The mash-up of his talks and interviews even manages to turn his stance on immigrants from Romania and Bulgaria - changing it to a declaration of his intent to send more Britons on holiday to Eastern Europe.

The spoof video, released on the day of the European election, sees Mr Farage declaring: I love extended holidays in Europe.'

Brussels, normally the subject of the politician's wrath, is praised in the film, with the MEP saying: Brussels, I've been looked after beautifully.'

Beach break: The UKIP leader declares his intention to send Britons to Bulgaria for more holidays in the video

Europe fan: Mr Farage is normally criticising Brussels for its EU policy, but in the video he declares he has been well looked after in the city

But the most ardent admiration is reserved for Romania and Bulgaria.

In the video, the UKIP leader declares: 'We want make sure millions of ordinary decent people out there enjoy Romania and Bulgaria on holiday.'

He goes on to declare: 'I'd pack be packing my bags now because as I've often said I love Europe, great place.'

The hilarious video was created by lastminute.com to promote its holidays to the Continent and is well-timed to coincide with one of the most important European elections in recent history.

The vote comes after the UKIP leader and Liberal Democrat Nick Clegg went head-to-head over two debates to discuss whether Britain should stay in the European Union or not.
