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, despite previous criticism of him ...

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.

The British government brushed aside Brexiteer Nigel Farage’s offer to help build diplomatic relations with Donald Trump. Farage is a longstanding ally of the U.S. president-elect and spent election night at his Mar-a-Lago residence.

Donald Trump's US election victory is set to be a topic of discussion at today's European Political Community meeting, which Sir Keir Starmer is attending. The prime minister will also use the summit in Budapest to announce deals to tackle small boat crossings.
