The Reform UK leader – who considers himself Britain’s ‘Trump whisperer’ – will have been left crestfallen after hearing the man in the Oval Office describe the prime minister as ‘a very special person’, writes David Maddox
During Keir Starmer's visit to the White House, President Trump endorsed the Chagos Islands deal, contradicting Nigel Farage's claims that Trump would veto it, thereby discrediting Farage. Trump praised Starmer, enhancing his reputation and suggesting a potential bromance between the two leaders. Farage's relationship with Trump was questioned as he was not mentioned during the meeting or press conference, while Starmer's political moves, including cutting foreign aid and boosting defense spending, weakened his right-wing opponents.
