Boris Johnson has said that he absolutely did not give Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage a ring and do a deal ahead of the General Election. However, the prime minister did welcome Mr Farage's decision not to stand his party's candidates in current Conservative constituencies adding "I'm glad that there is a recognition that there's only one way to get Brexit done and that's to vote for us".
