For some reason I seem to be a magnet for cash from crypto billionaires and convicted criminals. This one is both, although Donald Trump pardoned him. He lived in Hong Kong but moved back recently to get round the new rules on donations from abroad.

@gordonrayner @christopherhope And Farage is backing the little people against The Establishment?…?!
Doesn’t look like it ..

You mean a crypto billionaire criminal pardoned by Donald Trump has handed £36m to @Nigel_Farage

You only know this because Farage flapped after being approached by The Times and handed the story to the Telegraph

NEW: Reform UK has received a record single donation of £36m from cryptocurrency billionaire Ben Delo in what will be seen as the Americanisation of British political funding.

The astonishing sum comes after Andy Burnham last month dropped his support for capping the amount a person or organisation can give in a single donation. The PM may be regretting that now.

[Reform UK Exposed 🇬🇧 @reformexposed]

Crypto billionaire Ben Delo says the record-breaking donation is about ensuring a “fair fight”.

Yeah right, “fair fight”.

Ben Delo co-founded BitMEX and pleaded guilty in the US to wilfully failing to establish and maintain legally required anti-money-laundering controls.

He agreed to pay a $10m criminal fine.

Then Donald Trump pardoned him.

Now he has handed Nigel Farage’s Reform UK £36m.

Reform UK keeps trying to tell people it’s an anti-establishment insurgent fighting wealthy elites.

Let this sink in: the biggest political donation in British history has come from a billionaire crypto tycoon with a criminal conviction subsequently wiped away by Trump.

One person.

This isn’t ordinary people “taking back control”.

It once again begs the question - who does Reform UK really answer to?

But surely our DOGE team was going to find tons of savings and loads of lazy people to sack, then reduce council tax?
Now it turns out they are launching a public consultation on council tax increases.

Danny Tommo’s just threatened a guy on his way home from work in Portsmouth because he refused to say he supported the “Stop the boats” protest that was happening.

Ordinary people going about their business shouldn’t have to put up with this jumped up lunatic.

[HOPE not hate @hopenothate]

Last week, the Electoral Commission published new data on donations to political parties covering the second quarter of this year, and to the surprise of absolutely no one, Reform UK continue to be fuelled by crypto investors and overseas businessmen. https://t.co/iVwtHDhs45

This is Farage's record on workers' rights. It's indefensible.

News of the Portsmouth “patriots” mistaking the Pakistani cricket team for asylum seekers is travelling around the world.

Good that he calls them “white supremacists.”

Robert Jenrick(Reform MP) doubles down on the pensioner assaulting the protester at the Reform conference:

"I'm sorry for the OAP... he should be given a medal for what he did."

[Reform UK Exposed 🇬🇧 @reformexposed]

Hi @sandwellcouncil and @ElectoralCommUK, can you please tell @reformparty_uk that using the council’s logo on campaign materials is a no-no.

Sandwell Council's own published rules state: “The Sandwell Council logo … can only be used with the express permission of the council.”

“Council resources should not be used where a political communication is to be issued.”

Also - the imprint doesn’t have a name or printer address.
