In a surprising tweet, which has raised eyebrows in the UK, Mr Trump made the recommendation to his almost 16 million followers on 22nd November.
Many people would like to see Nigel Farage represent Great Britain as their Ambassador to the United States. He would do a great job!
In response, Mr Farage told the Press Association: “I’m very flattered by the comments and I have said since I met the president-elect that I would like to do anything I can to act in a positive way to help relationships between our two countries.”
However, the news was greeted with a quick riposte from No 10, which insisted: “There is no vacancy. We have an excellent ambassador to the U.S.”
