Nigel Farage’s Latest US Trip To Visit Trump Has Got 1 Word Trending Online

Nigel Farage’s latest stateside visit has everyone on social media asking the same question: what is he doing there, and not in his constituency?

The Reform party leader and MP for Clacton is in the US, again, supporting Donald Trump as Americans head to the polls today.

The neck and neck race between the Republican nominee and his Democrat rival, vice-president Kamala Harris, is almost over after a long and turbulent campaign from both sides.

However, Farage is not a US citizen nor is he on Trump’s team (even though he briefly considered supporting it in the summer).

In the end, he actually decided to run as the Reform candidate in Clacton-on-Sea – and won.

That was a major victory for both his party, which only had one Tory defector in parliament during the last term, and for Farage personally, considering his seven previous unsuccessful attempts to get a seat in the Commons.

But the Clacton MP – who initially refused to hold face-to-face surgeries in his constituency, claiming he would be targeted – has just made his third trip to the States in four months.

So, naturally, his critics were quick to call him out.

In fact so many people started to comment on Farage’s trip, they soon got the word “Clacton” trending on X…

It’s just been announced Nigel Farage is once again in the USA on another jolly. The good people of Clacton however are still waiting for their MP to set up a constituency office, to agree times and places for a surgery or even establish an email address or phone number. pic.twitter.com/W7pb4cfjEQ
