I'm absolutely furious that facts and information like this are allowed on social media while every Reform MP is working so hard to spread misinformation and lies and stir up our gullible supporters who will believe any old bollocks.
Nigel Farage struck a secret deal to return as Reform leader months before the election, and showed it to the treasurer in May 2024.So the man who claimed he “wasn’t involved in politics” and therefore didn’t need to declare gifts was already cutting leadership deals behind the scenes.😆
We could have had this 10 years ago and avoided the disaster of Brexit if the media had done its job right. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺
It comes as Nigel Farage's net approval rating has fallen to -32, its lowest since the 2024 election.

The world is on fire, yet still most of our political leaders doggedly defend business as usual, so emissions continue to rise, and nature to collapse. How can they keep up the pretence that driving us and nature off a cliff is 'acting responsibly'? www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...
