Nigel Farage to make a ‘Tory comeback as US ambassador’? | LBC analysis

42

President-elect Donald Trump has said Nigel Farage would make a good British ambassador to the US.

Mr Trump said “many people” would like to see Mr Farage as ambassador and he would do a “great job”.

Mr Farage, who helped Mr Trump during his US presidential election campaign, said the suggestion had come as a “bolt from the blue”, adding: “If I could help the UK in any way I would”.

Matthew Wright and his guests, Paul Richards and Tim Barnes, have a look at how realistic this is.

  1. Worried??

    Yeah he spent his time in politics moving wealth from the working class voters into the pockets of the wealth oligarchs and has swung behind the scorched earth policy race baiting muslim hating the zionist masonic lodge has swung behind now that the freemarketing experiment has run out of steam

  2. Farage will not go to Blackpool he knows he will fail for the 8th time.
    Farage looks after Farage and will sit on the fence and jump off to whoever or what serves him well.
    He is a fair weather charlton gift of the gob and a far right Torie.

  3. I can't believe the energy going into this flog. He's dragging the UK into an unsavoury place yet people are talking about honours and political deals with him. He needs to be pushed out of the media spotlight and onto jail

  4. I don't think the Tory government could become any more disgusting or corrupt than it already is with or without Farage. The country with deliver their choice of government at the next general election and I belive it will not be the Tory party.

  5. UK politics slips into deep darkness with people like Farage and Tice. They appear to be the alternative to the Tory who have lost the trust of the electorate and who don’t vote Labour out of principle. What a desperate situation.

  6. Nigel Farage is the equivalent of a heckler. doesn’t take responsibility for anything but all the glory. Where is the Golden age he promised after Brexit. NHS, housing, jobs etc. we are performing worse than any industrial country atm. Of course it’s not his fault, it’s someone else’s.

  7. Didn’t cotton on that you were speaking about Nigel Farage. Ha ha. Just your bad diction pronouncing Farridge as in porridge. He’s very popular both sides of the pond.

  8. In order to have a comeback you have to get somewhere in the first place. He stood for Parliament 7 times and got beaten every time (resoundingly). His only success was being the most invited guest on Question Time in 2015/16. What is it exactly that LBC think he's going to come back from?

  9. Fatcheck Trump is not president elect he will only be that if he wins the presidential election in November but thankfully the silent majority will make sure trump is never president again

  10. As an American living in the UK, I heard Nigel Farage saying Joe Biden doesn't like us (U.K.). Here is a person who taked up the UK to leaving the EU. That turned out well.
