Nigel Farage joins Donald Trump and his daughter Ivanka for a meal at luxury Washington hotel after former UKIP leader's barnstorming speech at US conservative conference

The former UKIP leader was spotted sitting with Trump, his daughter Ivanka and her husband, White House adviser Jared Kushner, at the Trump International Hotel in Washington DC. It is understood Farage was 'squeezed in at the last second' after his barnstorming speech at the US Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Friday. The fact that Farage was invited into the group of Trump's confidantes shows just how close he has become with the President since backing him during his election campaign.
