The rock band Rage Against the Machine has sent a cease and desist letter to Nigel Farage over the name of his podcast.

The US band has accused the Brexiteer of "brazenly and unlawfully exploiting" their name by calling his show Farage Against The Machine.

The former UKIP leader hosts the podcast on the LBC radio station.

In a cease and desist letter seen by celebrity news site The Blast on Tuesday, it is said that Mr Farage's suggestion of endorsement was "abhorrent" considering his "far-right political views".

Rage Against The Machine, who are renowned for their politically charged music, added that the former UKIP leader should "find some other target to troll".
