As the brexiteer wrote to Boris Johnson, Andrew Bridgen said that Farage should be rewarded with a knighthood for the “work he has undertaken over many years to advance the case for the UK leaving the European Union.” Tweets are flying around on twitter between politicians and other political followers.
