“Asked by Reuters whether any crypto asset businesses were donors to Reform UK, Farage said: “not that I’m aware of”, and added that “we might have had some sponsorship at the conference”.
Despite the unclear mention of “sponsorship”, Farage did not clarify that Zebu Group itself – a crypto asset business providing marketing services to cryptocurrency and blockchain projects owned by Steven Bartlett (*Dragon’s Den*) – was at that moment paying him £20,000 personally to headline that very summit”

But Kier got a free suit so let’s give Novgorod Nigel a free pass.

thats because he doesn’t care where the money comes from.

And the 5 million from a from a crypto mogul in Thailand, and that’s before you count the contributions he made towards reform.

£50k is nothing compared to the approximate £8m Reform have got from the crypto mogule living in Thailand

I’m continuously disappointed how few major papers are covering all these inconsistencies as thoroughly as they should be. Too often this sort of reporting is coming from smaller outlets like the byline times, but when Rayner missed some stamp duty the broadsheets covered it relentlessly for weeks. Where’s the steady stream of op eds clamouring for Farages resignation?

this has to be end of him, but off course it won’t be, cause it’s a blind eye when the right do it

Just ban political advertising on social media and print media.

I’m ionce heard someone saying, and I may be paraphrasing but, there is no money in politics unless you’re corrupt. Can’t quite put my finger on who it was that said it though.

Farage is out here being up to his neck in corruption, but him and his ilk say they are going to conduct mass deportations in the UK, thus 20 something percent of people wanna vote for him.
What is this timeline…

I’m beginning to think Nige could be a little dishonest. I could be wrong though

John Healey just asked Farage to confirm none of the 5million came from Russian linked profits. Which he isn’t going to ask unless he already knows the answer. Frog face could be in a reasonable amount of trouble here, even if only politically.

Poor old Nige. How does all this sensitive private information keep getting leaked into the public domain?
Can’t a man who forces himself and his following on the public on a daily basis expect some privacy when it comes to who’s paying him?

Relatable. Which of us hasn’t accepted a large political donation without thinking where it came from? /s
