Nigel Farage to start petition to secure Donald Trump the Nobel Peace Prize



Right-wing British politician Nigel Farage has said he will start a petition to have Donald Trump nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, saying the award would lose legitimacy in the eyes of millions if the US president had a successful North Korean summit and subsequently did not receive it.

Mr Trump is among those who believes he deserves becoming a recipient of the Norwegian-based prize and has claimed such an opinion is widely shared.

On the contrary, the award would lose legitimacy if he DID receive it.
