    1. Apologies for the Mail link! Trump isn’t returning his calls, now Putin is hacking his phone.

    2. In order to help reduce waiting times, the FSB has agreed to help the UK government carry out vetting checks for MPs and other elected officials.

      So the *Gift* is not the issue, rather how it was revealed?

      Reminds you of how Trump is trying to hide the Epstien fallout.

    4. Why would Russia hack the phone of one of their assets? He even used to be employed by the Russian government. He’s talking shite.

      Potentially true, the MAGAsphere does seem to cooled on him a little, maybe they’ve lost patience with him and want to parachute in another shill🤷‍♂️

      Why would they leak this information when they could use it to blackmail him? The only situation I could think of would be if he had something much _worse_ going on and they leaked this as a warning shot.

      Poor Nige, first he upset his handlers in Washington DC which resulted in Trump boycotting him when Farage went on his pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago a couple of months ago… and now he’s upset his handlers in Moscow 😢

      So he’s saying he didn’t want us to find out? Well that makes it all better for sure…

      Even if true*, that’s just an excellent reason why we don’t want senior politicians who try to conceal enormous sums of money given to them. It makes them vulnerable to blackmail by hostile states.

      *Not that I think it is true. Lying is his standard way to get our of trouble. When criticised for not holding surgeries, he lied that he’d been instructed not to. When criticised for not doing vetting properly, he said he would sue the company that had stitched him up. That was a lie. He didn’t even do anything to improve vetting.

      Bit of a betrayal then isn’t it Nigel… Or maybe thats the plan… guys a Russian Shill ffs.

      And this is the fool some of you want as PM?

      The stories get more tall by the fucking day……

      “Hey I was dishonest but I have been wronged by the person who found out about it”, is pretty typical of a narcissist.

      What a very strange way of trying to garner public sympathy!?

      This is 100% pure distraction, which strongly suggests they are panicking because they know they’ve fucked up.

    14. ItsFuckingScience on

      Funny how right now there’s headline articles in the U.K. sub one about how Burnham is linked to building on green belt (shock horror) and the other is Farage receiving millions of pounds of dodgy money

      Politicians all bad as one another though am I right? /s

    15. TheChattyRat on

      Ahh well he’s a national security threat if his corruption can be outed by a foreign state so easy so he can forget about being pm.

    16. Oh so it should have remained a secret and Farrage is upset you got “hacked” but the bribe is ok?

    17. Disillusioned_Pleb01 on

      So… how many more gifts have been received, but not leaked or reported??

    18. limeflavoured on

      What bollocks. He’s just trying anything to take the heat off the fact that he took £5m off a cryto billionaire

    19. TheChattyRat on

      Basically “whatever gets you to stop asking questions that’s what happend, yeah?”

    20. happenedtoyoureye on

      Farage is never shy about playing the victim card. Whether it’s this, a milkshake or stone thrown at him, being debanked ect.

      Yet he suspiciously never once mentioned he had an incendiary device put through his letterbox until he was looking for a cover story about needing that £5 million for security……. before backtracking and claiming it was just a gift anyway.

    21. Unusual-Art2288 on

      . Im sceptical. I must admit. Had the phone bern checked by a people we can actully trust

    22. Brave_Ring_1136 on

      So he would not have volunteered the information otherwise, corruption plain and simple

    23. Prisoner3000 on

      This is what Steve Bannon calls “Flooding the zone” which involves pumping out all sorts of contradictory information no matter how implausible. Soon, people will be arguing over whether Farage’s phone was or wasn’t hacked rather than the main story which is that Farage took a five million pound bribe from a crypto billionaire based in Thailand, just before reversing his decision to not stand as an MP

    24. Is this the same Farage who claimed someone loosened his wheels nuts to kill him and then retracted the claim after the slightest bit of scrutiny?

      It’s almost as if he’s a persistent liar who’ll say anything for money, spin or attemtion.

    25. FreakshowMode on

      Farage is just whining because he got caught. The fact remains, that in order for criminal behaviour to be leaked, it has to have happened in the first place.

      The man is a parasite who, if given the opportunity, will ‘pull a Trump’ on the UK and weaponise every aspect of our society against itself so he can later monetise it and fund his retirement island.

    26. AnyWalrus930 on

      When your daddy pays your phone bills it’s not hacking if he checks what’s on there.

    27. richardathome on

      Just a reminder that Trump tore up the rule of law and started wars as a distraction from him personal “dealings.”

      Now imagine Far Right Farage as PM…
