Nigel Farage’s offer to help build bridges between Donald Trump and the government have been rejected by a Labour minister.The Reform UK leader said the U.K. must “roll out the red carpet” for the president-elect,

Farage, who leads the upstart, right-wing Reform UK, won a seat in the U.K. parliament for the first time at the general election in July, helping to erode the Conservative vote as the party was booted out of office.

Nigel Farage will not be used as an envoy to build bridges with Donald Trump, a Cabinet minister made clear, jibing: “Hasn’t he got a job to do in Clacton”. The Reform UK leader, a longtime supporter of the president-elect, has offered to help the UK avoid tariffs that Trump is threatening to impose on imports into America.
