Nigel Farage has claimed he wrote privately to Keir Starmer in September, offering to help the government strengthen ties with the Trump White House. In the New Statesman today he says he told Starmer:
“I know a lot of this administration, I am on text exchanges with cabinet members [and] if you need my help in any way at all, I will do it. I will do it under the radar. Nobody will ever know.”
