Nigel Farage has called for Britain's ambassador to the US to be sacked after it was claimed he had described Donald Trump's White House as 'uniquely dysfunctional' and 'inept'.
Sir Kim was appointed to his role in Washington several months before Mr Trump's shock ascendancy to the White House.
The appointment was subject to intense scrutiny after Mr Trump was elected after he swiftly called for Mr Farage to be the UK's man in Washington instead of Sir Kim.
In a highly unusual intervention, the president declared in a late-night tweet that Mr Farage would do a 'great job' and that 'many people' wanted to see him as the British ambassador.
