Britain's Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage on Saturday tweeted that Joe Biden—who the U.S. media has projected to be the winner of the U.S. presidential contest—"hates" the United Kingdom.

Farage shared a short video clip in which someone can be heard saying, "Mr. Biden, a quick word for the BBC."

"The BBC—I'm Irish," Biden responds, before cracking a smile.

Farage shared the brief clip and commented: "As you can see from this clip, Biden hates the UK. The Conservatives had 4 years to do a trade deal with the USA and pro-UK President, and they failed. There is no chance now."

The tweet prompted more than 13,000 comments and more than 8,000 retweets.
