So important that he could only get elected, oh delicious irony, to the European Parliament when, if he did show up, the only thing he did was make his colleagues utterly sick of his non constructive contributions

Not saying he's not a cunt. But under his leadership UKIP gained enough traction to threaten the Tory's chances at power to the point that they put forward a referendum that has resulted in the downgrading of the UK as a world power, potentially breaking up the Union and weakened the EU at a time when the old world powers are waning.
I'd say that makes a strong case for him one of the most important and influential British politicians so far this century.

Crazy that he's arguably the most important British politician of this century.
