Nigel Farage is set to issue an urgent plea to Donald Trump as he faces down the “globalist agenda” at the World Economic Forum’s summit in Davos.
Mr Farage is scheduled to make his case to the globe’s financial heavyweights directly after the President on Wednesday afternoon.
Ahead of his debut official appearance in Switzerland, the long-time WEF critic told the Express how he will say Britain “has been the most craven country on earth to the globalist agenda – that ends now”.
Mr Farage is set to add: “We will talk to you, we will work with you, we will negotiate with you, but we will not follow your agenda on climate change, DEI, or anything else. Gone, done.”
The Reform chief also vowed to make a plea to the US amid escalating tensions over the President’s proposed takeover of Greenland – after claiming credit for Mr Trump’s Chagos U-turn on Tuesday.
“Please, don’t threaten your friends,” he will say.
But Mr Farage has insisted his message will be “very praiseworthy of America removing enemies of the West like Maduro, the Iranian regime – love all that”.
