LONDON — Brexiteer Nigel Farage said he has a “firm job offer” on the table related to Donald Trump’s U.S. re-election campaign.
In an interview with U.K. broadcaster Talk, former Brexit Party leader Farage — who has repeatedly flirted with a new gig stateside — said he’s been offered the chance to “indirectly” help the Republican candidate’s fresh bid for the White House.
“I do actually have a very firm job offer on the table from America, which is very, very tempting,” Farage told Talk presenter Julia Hartley-Brewer.
“It’s a confidential offer, obviously, but it would be very heavily involved with the election campaign,” Farage said. “Obviously, who becomes president of America matters.”
Since stepping down from the leadership of his populist Reform U.K. party in 2021, Farage has shunned frontline politics in favor of a broadcasting career. He hosts a show on the right-leaning broadcaster GB News.
His political future is a long-running question in Westminster, and he has teased a comeback to lead challenger party Reform — which has steadily gained in the polls — on a number of occasions.
But Farage is also close to and has repeatedly praised Trump, who he interviewed for GB News in March.
For his part, Trump has described Farage as a “handsome guy” at a campaign rally earlier this year — and appeared via video at Farage’s lavish 60th birthday celebration in April to congratulate the Brexiteer on a “truly remarkable sixty years on Earth.”
In his Monday interview, Farage said that the job offer was not related to any diplomatic positions, such as the soon-to-be-vacant role of British ambassador to the U.S.
“No this is something separate to that, but very much related [to Donald Trump.] It would indirectly be to help Donald Trump’s campaign,” Farage said.
Farage said he hadn’t completely ruled out a political comeback in the U.K. ether.
“Clearly the direction our country is taking is important too. I honestly, truthfully, haven’t yet made my mind up and I haven’t got long left to do it, and I fully accept that,” he said.
“At the minute I’m leaning towards America. But let’s see,” Farage added. “I accept the fact you know I can’t keep teasing people forever.”
