Nigel Farage has finally come swinging for his pal Donald Trump - brutally comparing him to wrecking ball PM .
The Reform UK leader claimed the erratic US President had tried to do "too much too soon", just like ill-fated Ms Truss. Mr Farage, who campaigned for Trump during the US election and who has made repeated trips to the US to help him out, told LBC: "I've never agreed with the tariff policy."
He went on: "I think Trump did too much too soon, rather like Liz Truss did a couple of years ago. I've never in my life before seen stock markets fall quickly and bond markets fall at the same time. There's little doubt Scott Bessent, the Treasury Secretary, who is also a friend of mine, played a decisive role in saying 'woah we've gotta ease back on this'."
