Nigel Farage has told the Reform UK conference the British government needs to do everything it can to welcome Mr Trump and negotiate a trade deal.

The Reform UK leader – a close ally of Mr Trump and the only UK politician who was at his Palm Beach home on election night - described Mr Trump as a “pro-British American president”. He claimed the Republican politician would give the UK “potentially huge opportunities if we can overcome the difficulties that the whole of the cabinet have been rude about him”.

Nigel Farage says the Prime Minister has the chance to save Britain from tariffs and strike a historic trade deal with the United States.
