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".

Mixed feelings about it.
Id rather have Maggie Thatcher bust there instead.
Todays britain is a socialist pc muslim raped, disarmed, nightmare. Cant really get whooped up about being best friends with them.
Unless they start becoming the nstion they once were I am not hot to be buds with Orwells 1984 folks on Airstrip One.

For Victory, the palm is outward .. it's a delightfully subtle distinction ;-)
Churchill was the most brilliant man since Benjamin Franklin.
Because he wanted to put MLK's bust in there, and having both would make the place "cluttered". As if it was a small room with limited space. Yes, I am being sarcastic.
Still not tired of winning!
Can I just say how much a relief it is NOT to see anything today on major news about Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Dem’s freaking out how Trump is making America great again.

I was unaware of that fact. I could have gotten into series (sic) and yuge trouble in Britian.
