Euroskeptic EFDD caucus
leader Nigel Farage said Tuesday the EFDD would "continue to
work together" with the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement (M5S)
after the M5S's bid to join the Alliance of Liberals and
Democrats for Europe (ALDE) was sunk Monday. "I'm happy to say
all our differences with Beppe Grillo's movement have been
resolved in an amicable manner," said Farage, the founder of the
United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP). Farage was speaking
after a meeting with the M5S's 17 MEPs. ALDE pulled out of a
deal to allow Grillo's movement in after half its MEPs rebelled
against leader Guy Verhofstadt's decision.
