"For years he has derided the annual gathering at Davos as a smug and conspiratorial meeting of enemies of the nation state. But this week, Nigel Farage will himself be rubbing shoulders with the globalists he has so reviled. Farage's itinerary at the Swiss ski resort remains unclear, although his Reform UK deputy, Richard Tice, said on Sunday he hoped Farage would get a chance to speak to Donald Trump, who is also attending the event run by the World Economic Forum (WEF)."
"Let's hope they have an opportunity to have some words; both will have very busy schedules for sure, but in a sense that's where real friendship can come in, to say: Look, we understand what you're trying to achieve; this is the wrong way to go about it,' Tice said."
"Farage's rhetoric on such subjects has in the past prompted criticism from groups including the Board of Deputies of British Jews, who said his discussion of supposed plots by bankers to create a global government at times veered into territory associated with antisemitic conspiracy theories."
Nigel Farage has long denounced Davos as a smug, conspiratorial meeting of enemies of the nation state. He will attend the World Economic Forum gathering in Davos this week despite prior criticism of the event and its attendees. Farage's itinerary at the Swiss ski resort remains unclear. Reform UK deputy Richard Tice said he hoped Farage could speak to Donald Trump, who is also attending, and raise concerns about potential US tariffs and talks linked to Greenland. Farage has faced criticism from groups citing rhetoric that they say veered toward antisemitic conspiracy territory, which he rejects.
