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".

Bump!
Best election ever...BEE!
The bust is the property of Her Majesty’s Government and had been on loan to the U.S. for sixty years, when our first Mau-Mau president returned it. HMG may not be inclined to return it.
It was a shameful act. Thank you, Mr. President-Elect Trump.
WTG President Trump!!!!
Need to fumigate the place of liberal rats. 10% across the board cut in federal agencies - new hires go first.
Stop the PC insanity in the military.
WINNING!
Get one of Reagan in there too, Mr. President.
It was not an FU TO OBAMA as much as it was an FU to the Brits/US. What can Trump return to Africa?
Insert scream-—> Fantastic!
Refresh my memory, what excuse did Hussein use for removing it in the first place?
Well, only half of it.
Give ‘im ‘alf a Vee.

President Obama Explains Why Winston Churchill’s Bust Was Removed From the Oval Office
Out with the jug-eared jackass; in with Donald Trump and Winston Churchill.
yes,,, BIGLY!!!
Churchill had a checkered history (he advocated for eugenics at one time) but that doesn’t seem to be why Obama deemed his bust to be statue non grata.
“American” has become “outrageous.” Call me outrageous.
