Farage fails to report 5 million gift!

If this is so, then the parliamentary book should be thrown in his direction.

Well blow me down with a feather, surely he is as pure as the driven snow.

I expect it will be mentioned in leaflets and on the doorstep knocking. Come out late however for postal votes.

Frankly the man disgusts me, because he is quite happy to rip anyone he wishes to smear for "gifts" etc.

Fair do's:

its in GB news, and they are not hiding it.

Can't say I'm shocked or even surprised by this. Shows how little regard I have for Farage.

Well, well well.

MPs are required to register any benefits (excluding earnings) received in the 12 months before their election, including personal gifts or financial benefits, within one month of becoming an MP. These rules ensure transparency, requiring disclosure of any interest that might influence their parliamentary actions, with exemptions only for truly personal gifts.

Farage says that the money was to pay for security.

Meantime Zia Yusuf has said that Reform will carpet bomb the constituencies of Labour MPs who voted for Starmer in the HoC division yesterday.

Farage and Jenrick did not vote at all in the division.

The last time Farage did vote in any division was on 18 March 2026 so not one vote recorded in over a month. He really isn’t insisted in the business of Parliament.

Good article here from Tom Burgis about Harborne and his connection to Farage:

www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/apr/25/christopher-harborne-mystery-billionaire-bankrolling-reform-uk-nigel-farage

Note his connections to the Tories too.

Extract:

In 2019, almost £3.5m of [Harborne’s] donations to the Brexit party came after Farage had been outmanoeuvred by Boris Johnson and opted to stand down most of his candidates. The party slumped to 2% of the vote and won no seats, whereupon Harborne sent nearly half amillion more.

Likewise, the timing of a series of large donations to the Conservative party seems odd. There was £500,000 in February 2022, just after the Metropolitan police launched its investigation into Johnson’s Partygate lockdown breaches. Then the same amount on 6 May, as the Tories lost 500 councillors in local elections. And again in September, the week after Truss’s fiscal meltdown. In November, Harborne transferred £1m toJohnson’s private office, his premiership having ended in disgrace.

There does, though, appear to be a pattern. Some big beneficiaries of Harborne’s largesse have undergone conversions to the crypto cause. Even if he did not seek a quid pro quo, they adopted policy positions that align with his interests.

Purely coincidentally, Mr Farage is promoting crypto currency in Britain.
I'm sure it's unrelated to the source of Mr Harborne's wealth.

Surely unrelated, Chocolateloving gran...

But if he'd declared a big donation from a crypto-currency ex-pat millionaire, he'd probably not have had such freedom from criticism over promoting crypto-currency as he has been doing.

Shows what a massive Grifter he is- I'm glad this has come out before the local elections because I am really worried about Reform getting in where I live.

I cannot understand why people support this man but constantly slag off Starmer.

In fact, look who called them out..

The Conservatives have announced that they are referring Nigel Farage to the parliamentary commissioner over the Guardian’s report saying he was given £5m by the crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne shortly before announcing that he would be a candidate at the 2024 election".

This cannot be ignored: whose pockets has the £5.000.000 gone to?

Why did he not declare it Does he think he's Teflon?

Purely coincidentally, Mr Farage is promoting crypto currency in Britain.
I'm sure it's unrelated to the source of Mr Harborne's wealth.

Uh oh.
