Trump’s the new Churchill, says Brit pal Farage – POLITICO

by · POLITICO

LONDON — Nigel Farage compared his friend Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential election to the plight of Winston Churchill.

The Reform UK leader, a top British ally of the incoming U.S. president, drew parallels between Trump — booted out by voters in 2020 only to triumph in 2024 — and the British wartime hero, who lost to Labour after the Second World War but returned as prime minister in 1951.

“The swings towards Trump are truly remarkable, so I’m thrilled by that,” Farage told GB News.
