Nigel Farage was yesterday urged to explain why a US antiabortion group helped arrange a meeting in London between himself, Trump administration officials and diplomats.

- Rowena Mason Whitehall editor

The meeting, reported by the New York Times, took place in March between Farage and a delegation from the state department, which it said was overseen by the US embassy and brokered by the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) group. It was said to have discussed abortion rights, free speech and online safety laws.

ADF, which supports free speech and religious freedom, has worked in Britain to help challenge the prosecutions of Christians who were arrested for praying silently outside abortion clinics, breaching "buffer zones".
