'Arron Banks gave '£450,000 funding to Nigel Farage after Brexit vote' Tycoon provided Farage with Chelsea home, car and money to promote him in US, Channel 4 News claims' The Guardian. May 2019
As Tory reject Nadhim Zahawi joins the army of Reform jokers trying to portray Nigel Farage as a man of the people vs the establishment, let’s not forget that he was sacked from the govt for lying about having evaded £5m in tax and that he claimed £6k of expenses to heat his horses stables!

Today there wss a debate in Parliament to ban ALL MPs’ second jobs. Nigel Farage didn’t show up to defend any of his - including the latest one, raking in £22,500 an hour to promote a gold dealer. The gravy train must end. Watch the debate below.
