Cottrell later admitted himself on Spectator he’s seeking a Trump pardon. Farage said the meeting was “personal”. So which part was personal - the photo op, or the pardon pitch?"
Note this was the only trip to US by Farage, out of 12 in last 24 months, with an undisclosed meeting objective/purpose.
