There was a referendum on first past the post versus an alternative (eg Proportional Representation) in May 2011. An underwhelming turnout of just over 40% rejected the idea by more than 2/3 majority.
So much for referendums eh...

Yes and I accept the result, the majority of people who bothered to vote wanted the first past the post to remain and so it does. The turnout in that vote showed the whole lack of interest in it though unlike the EU referendum where more people voted than in any previous election/ referendum.
Be interesting to see who steps up and from what countries to carry on Nigels good work. Some big shoes to fill but a few possible candidates. Maybe your beloved Le Penn or Wilders in Holland or Beppe in Italy. Or maybe someone new will step up to continue the good fight.
If big shoes are required then how about this guy? He should fit in nicely with the other UKIP clowns.

No word of a lie, but you can email them and find out to Candidates@ukip.org - ask no questions, I'll tell no lies, but that email address gets forwarded to every candidate standing for a position whether a seat or a party appointment. Drop them a note.
UKIP are finished no more than a laughing stock now, I was referring to the other anti EU parties within the EU, they will need a new leader after the next EU parliament elections next year.
They will all get railroaded by a Farage type.... just you watch. The EU will keep growing and growing.
