Nigel Farage jokes he’s eyeing up prime minister job to I’m a Celeb camp

Nigel Farage joked that he was eyeing up the role of the UK prime minister during a conversation with his I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! campmates on Wednesday (22 November).

Sam Thompson asked the former Ukip leader who his favourite British leader is, seeing Farage joking that he could be up for the top job.

"Depends on how much mess the country gets in... Never say never,” Farage joked.

He explained: “I didn’t like the way [Tony] Blair changed the country at all, but I have to admit he was a strong leader. And Margaret [Thatcher] was a very strong leader – they were tough times. But she changed the country completely. Completely.”
