Brexit Party leader, Nigel Farage, has defended comments made by Ann Widdecombe regarding sexual conversion. She had said that science could one day find a way to “find a solution” so gay people could become heterosexual. In an interview with ITV’s Good Morning Britain today, Farage refused to condemn Widdecombe’s views.

This could be quite awkward for Boris Johnson, the Led By Donkeys anti-Brexit group has projected a previous and less-than-flattering message about Donald Trump onto Big Ben. Trump seems to have forgotten (or simply missed) these comments as now they have a close relationship. The US President said of Johnson, regarding his visit to the UK: “I think I may meet with him.
