Nigel Farage has won

Cossy

I cannot help thinking what Farage has “won”? In my eyes he’s such a complete loser!

What he's "won" is the Inquiry into his and Reform's financial relationship with Harborne which will mean total humiliation and public disgrace.

oops.

Graphite 10.36- you coudn't make it up if you tried! Your post made me smile even if that was not exactly your intention 😊

IKEA terrorists? Coming over here with their Allen keys and their Billy bookcases trying to spoil Nigel’s party to celebrate getting back the £100k a year job he already had but never did and will continue not to do.

In other Reform news. While Darren Grimes makes a dick of himself, Mr DickPic himself, Jaymey McIvor has been put in charge of vetting Reform candidates.

The interviews will be interesting, won’t they? We just need a quick photo for our files so we can tell one plonker from another.

Each to their own Fried, but I could never support a candidate who exhibited so much antisemitism as a young lad.

"The source was the Guardian, btw"

Not to be trusted obviously!
Stick to the Daily Mail.

It was of course the Guardian, who first reported the whiole story on April 2026 (and ever since) that Farage had secretly received 5 million just weeks before entering Parliament in 2024. That Parliament rules required him to disclose, and that he did not.

www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/apr/29/revealed-nigel-farage-was-given-undisclosed-5m-by-crypto-billionaire-in-2024

The government publishes a list of allegations currently under investigation by the Commissioner.

www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-offices/standards-and-financial-interests/parliamentary-commissioner-for-standards/complaints-and-investigations/allegations-currently-under-investigation-by-the-commissioner/

Six people on the current list including Kevin Hollinrake (Tory), Heidi Alexander (Labour) and Sammy Wilson (DUP) plus two Reform and one "kind of" Reform, Farage, Tice and McMurdock.

That’s quite some feat in a Commons of 650 MPs, to have had five MPs elected in 2024 and have three under investigation.

The McMurdock case has been open since 15 September 2025 and is under rule 11 - Actions causing significant damage to the reputation of the House as a whole, or of its Members generally.

I think that’s to do with Covid bounce back loans he took on dormant companies - which is interesting as he’s been all over social media for months claiming he did nothing wrong, was exonerated blah blah, adding in some childish rudeness about the Commissioner for Standards for good measure. And yet the investigation is apparently still open.

Having resigned the whip, he still behaves as though he is a Reform MP, campaiging for them, tweeting all the same things they do, sitting on the Commons bench beside them rather than with the other Independents behind, was at the Farage party on Thursday/Friday … and yet they haven’t invited him back into the party. Surely if he’s innocent, they would do?

Yes the Guardian (centre left) first booked there story and has followed up with suspicious activity reports and tax queries. The Times and Sunday times (centre right owned by Rupert Murdoch) has covered the ongoing fall out, with follow up investigations into related financial disclosures.

The Daily Telegraph (right wing, Conservative), with whom Farage has a £paid contract to write columns for its publication, in response to the Guardian breaking the story, published interviews with Farage and the donor and defended receipt of the £5million sum.

The Sun circulated statements and quotes from Farage framing the £million as 'a reward'.

Byline Times has reported on the legal and civic changes including police referrals regarding the matter.

There is no national newspaper that has completely ignored or failed to report on the £5million sum or the wider story of parliamentary standards probes, electoral commission referrals, political fall out etc- all have covered in some capacity.

have been the 2 leading press reporting on Farage's £5million undeclared payment.

Thats not to

Farage will of course defend the gift/reward/donation/bung
but
it seems to be the ommision to declare it that is being invested at the moment.

Honestly? This whole political fiasco is an utter disgrace from start to finish.

Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much (& too often)

If innocent, remain silent, if guilty either by mistake or deliberately, own up and pay the penalty, whatever that might be.

Farage has simply made a mockery of our political system and is such a self seeking narcissist.
