Nigel Farage: 'I have no Russian connections'

Nigel Farage has said the claims that the FBI has designated him a “person of interest” in its investigation into possible Russian interference in the US presidential election are “hysterical”.

Mr Farage, former UKIP leader, told the Today programme that although some of President Trump's team are friends of his "that go back years", he has no connections to Russia at all.
