Nigel Farage compared to Jesus

Winston McKenzie, who is standing to be elected in Croydon North, says the leader can "do no wrong".

He's also compared him to the non-stick material brand 'Teflon'. 

The former boxer described both Jesus and Farage as 'just one man', but with an army behind them.

He's quoted as saying: "Jesus was one man, we're his army.

"Farage is one man, we're his army and that's what it's all about.

"Everywhere he goes, it doesn't matter what he says or does, he gets away with it.

"Farage is like Teflon, he can do no wrong."

He made the comments during an interview with 'Chat Politics', where he was also questioned on his views on same-sex marriage.

He claimed it was "not something that Christians would advocate", adding: "I have nothing against gay people.

"I'm not some kind of homophobe but I am entitled to express my heartfelt opinion.

"I'm not going to be drawn on that because I know what will happen."

Mr McKenzie, who has also appeared on The X Factor, is famous for having joined every major political party in the UK, but never winning an election.
