According to the Guardian newspaper, the spokeswoman of UK Prime Minister Theresa May said that the government had already elaborated the plans for development of UK-US relations. The spokeswoman noted that during the phone conversation between May and Trump last week, the latter said that "he looked forward to enjoying the same close relationship that Reagan and Thatcher had."
"I don’t remember there being a third person in that relationship," the prime minister’s spokeswoman was quoted as saying by the Guardian newspaper.
Meanwhile, former UK Defense Minister from the Conservatives Gerald Howarth said that it would make sense to use Farage's relations with Trump.
"If Nigel Farage is well-connected with Donald Trump, and it would appear that he is, then we should certainly be talking to him. I’m not suggesting a formal role for him. But I certainly do think it’s worth talking to him, " Howarth was quoted as saying by the newspaper.
Republican candidate Trump won the November 8 presidential election in the United States, despite most of the analysts and opinion polls predicting his defeat to Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton.
