Richard Tice has slapped down Nigel Farage after the former Ukip leader hinted at a possible election deal with the Tories.
Despite on Wednesday admitting that he was open to a deal “if Sunak did something for him in return”, Tice said there are “no deals” to be done with the Conservative Party.
Tice dismissed Farage’s comments as “banter” and reaffirmed that he was the “leader of the party”.
Farage said: “I’ve done them some huge favours over the years as a party. Give me something back. We might have a conversation.”

“He’s having a bit of banter with Harry Cole of The Sun and that’s a bit of fun.
“But the reality is we are doing no deals with the Tories.”
Speaking on the need to take people at their word during a campaign, he added: “You also have to have a sense of humour within life.
“I’m very happy to provide the exact clarification.
