Nigel Farage visited Donald Trump's New York headquarters on Thursday night raising further speculation that he could be offered a job by the president-elect.

US political reporters on watch outside Trump Tower in New York confirmed night Mr Farage entered the lift in the skyscraper which takes him to Mr Trump’s office. He left around an hour later without comment.

If, as expected, Mr Farage met with Mr Trump it will have been their third meeting since Mr Trump was elected US president just a month ago.
