Shocked By Trump Win, Brits See Brexit Parallels And Commiserate

“I am delighted for the American people for having chosen their own Nigel Farage as US President”.

In an interview Wednesday, Mr. Farage called Donald Trump’s victory “absolutely huge” and added there were many parallels with Brexit.

“I am afraid that the reach of the European Union into the upper echelons of society in this country makes it quite hard to trust the judges”.

OS: Brexit and now Trump are probably the two biggest polling misses in political history, is this a pattern?

Ms May said revealing her strategy for talks would weaken Britain’s position and that members of parliament who regretted the referendum result “need to accept what the people decided”.

President-elect Donald Trump delivers his acceptance speech during his election night event at the New York Hilton Midtown in the early morning hours of November 9, 2016 in New York.

Farage proclaimed Trump’s win as a victory for “the little people, it’s the ordinary people [who are] rising up against an establishment that has done them down very badly over the course of the last couple of decades”.

However, Farage, who famously campaigned for the bigoted USA billionaire, was evasive when asked if he had already discussed a position with Trump – but he did admit he would accept American citizenship if it meant he could have a job in Donald Trump’s government. So many immigrant children poured into the school, that Angel had to help mentor and translate for a new student, even though she could not speak the new student’s language.

As Cameron before her, May and her government have been frosty toward the prospect of a President Trump.

Farage said: “I’m not quite sure what qualifies him as Mr Brexit, but it wasn’t me”.

People react to the television coverage of USA presidential election results during an election party at the U.S. embassy in London, Britain, November 9, 2016. We had Brexit, they have Trump, and across Europe and the world populist leaders are gaining traction.

Mr Farage was confident the United Kingdom could thrive economically with Mr Trump at the helm.

“Americans have made their choice”.

“I suppose I’m one of those rare people who think that Trump’s victory is a breath of fresh air”, he said. Under Trump’s “America First” doctrine, the United Kingdom could find itself slipping into a gap between a less effective North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and an European Union that, in response to Trump’s policy, deepens military and security integration.
