  1. The-Furry-Circle on

    I misread this as he had to pay to speak there and thought “so desperate for Trump’s attention”. I mean the sentiment is still true despite the error.

  2. As long as he pays the tax on it then he’s paying back into the system, It would be corporation tax rather than higher rate as he’s admitted previously.

  3. Are they draining his brain for the tank or does it already filled to the brim with ignorance?

  4. The headline also reads like he paid *them* £27k. In fairness, I’d have to be paid £27k to listen to him.

  5. The Club for Growth supports tax cuts, government spending cuts, and free trade. It has had some clashes with Trump over issues like tariffs.

    They apparently have lots of money for lobbying. I wonder what they hope to gain from spending £27,000 to hear Nigel Farage.

  6. Cool. A whole year of my life and teaching labour is worth less than an hour of Farage just talking shit
