With Brexit "done," its de facto founder Nigel Farage said he is leaving politics, according to the U.K.'s Evening Standard.

"There's no going back – Brexit is done," Farage told the Sunday Telegraph's podcast. "That won't be reversed. I know I've come back once or twice when people thought I'd gone, but this is it. It's done. It's over."

Still, Farage, 56, vowed to keep up the fight against China and the "woke agenda" as an influencer, per the report.

"I see our communities being divided more than ever by this agenda, and I'm very worried about it," he said. "I want to fight all those things.

"I have built up over these years quite a considerable social media platform. I've got reach. So I want to go on influencing the debate. I want to go on changing debate. But I can do that without going out and fighting elections."

Farage tweeted Sunday, with a video:

"I won't be involved in elected politics any longer, but I'm not going to go away from fighting the big battles of the day."
