Arron Banks gave what was, at the time, the largest ever political donation to Leave EU. He visited the Russian embassy several times. Was that to discuss business, or was it to discuss something much more interesting to the Russians, namely Banks' ability to deliver Putin the prize of Brexit?
Around the same time Banks started parroting Russia propaganda lies about Putin's 2014 invasion of Ukraine, including the blatant lie that Crimea is as Russian as the Isle of Wight is British, ignoring the fact that after conquering the territory in the late 18th century, Russia effectively exterminated the main part of Crimea's native Tatar population.
Farage, Brexit and Russia are inextricably entangled. Farage is Moscow's man in the UK, and Banks was his Russian linked Brexit bankroller
