NIGEL FARAGE has revealed that Donald Trump will re-install a bust of Winston Churchill removed from the Oval Office by Barack Obama - in a clear sign of the friendship the new President wishes to foster with Britain.
The interim Ukip leader said Mr Trump has already pushed Britain to the front of the queue for a favourable trade relationship and added that he is the man to forge stronger ties with the US as he flew to visit the business tycoon in his first days as President Elect.
Mr Farage said: "We talked about the prospect of the United Kingdom being at the front of the queue, all of which was met positively."
The Ukip leader described Donald Trump as an "anglophile" and said his re-installation of the Churchill statue was a clear sign of his appreciation for the historically warm relationship between the allies.
He said: "At the end of our time with Trump we asked him if the bust of Sir Winston Churchill that Obama had removed from the Oval Office could be put back in its rightful place. He enthusiastically thought that was a good idea. Need I say more?"
Nigel Farage played a key role in Mr Trump's US election campaign, speaking at rallies and drumming up support, with Mr Trump referring to his shock election victory as "Brexit plus plus".

Specially when these pix were published
[Is that a MLK statue that replaced Churchill?]
“Is it fair trade to give the U.K. special treatment at the front of the line?”
Is there a particular reason NOT to put our number one ally with whom we’ve had a special relationship for over a 100 years at the head of the line?
And who exactly would be treated unfairly by that, and why should be give a shit about them? France maybe? Cuba?
“That is a giant FU to Obama if there ever was one.”
It’s ALSO a giant FU to Prime Minster May and the other U.K. RINOs who just nastily turned down Nigel’s offer to help them as a special envoy between them and President Trump.
I am not a monarchist (I believe in our representative form of government), but I have to agree with you there; God save the Queen, God save Great Britain, God save the western world.
This is just a small start.
Nice work!
Can’t tell without a closeup...
President Trump should send Air Force One with a full Marine honor guard and at least the Sec of State to personally retrieve the bust of Churchill and return it with full honors and the pomp and ceremony fitting a visiting head of state.
You are correct they were DVD’s.
Donald without a tie...looks a little odd!
Maybe it goes where Obamagabe has the bust of MLK. I hope so.
Oddly, one of the first things I thought of! Oh we WON! We actually WON!
“I cant wait to see who Trump invites to the White House as guests.”
Any bets that IT WON’T BE ANY RAP SINGERS OR BLM or thosem who just to placate people. I’ve noticed over the past few days that megan kelly looks like a sick chicken.
Welcome back, Winnie!!!!!!
weird how the media were not upset , or asking, and yet they have gone into nutcase mode just over Trump.
“I’m surprised he didn’t replace it with a bust of himself.”
Probably because obama thought for sure that there would be an outcry for him to be put on Mount Rushmore.....as obama thinks so very highly of himself.
Hopefully a latter day Reagan-Thatcher Plus Plus
How about Hilliary? As Ambassador to Libya.
I hope Trump’s victory strengthens Farage’s hand!
You have to forgive Jedi. He’s still upset about Cruz.
