A few days ago, Ben Habib claimed that both Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson each received £1 million from a foreign-based crypto billionaire in November 2022

These alleged payments came years after the 2019 election, which Habib has linked to a deal where the Brexit Party stood down in key seats to help the Conservatives

Yet the media storm quickly moved on from Farage and the donations to Reform candidate Robert Kenyon and his offensive racist, misogynistic, and sexist social media posts

And not a peep about Boris Johnson receiving £1m in what is effectively foreign influence in the UK's democracy, the exact thing he said Brexit would stop

Why?

Is it normal for British politicians to receive £1m gifts from foreign based billionaires?

[Roger Gall @Shambles151]

Nigel Farage - the leader of Reform UK - is under investigation for failing to declare a £5 million 'gift'.

Please RT this until the BBC gives this story the same level of blanket coverage - as it would for the leader of any other UK political Party.

Farage did say Brexit would make us richer…

We should have known that by us, he meant him

£5,000,000 richer.

The only people who need to resign today are the political journalists and editors at @BBCNews and @SkyNews

I've never seen such a downright sinister plot to remove a democratically elected sitting PM.

Our media is absolutely fucking toxic.

@RachelReevesMP Rachel you shouldn't have delayed with the first important budget. A lot of faith was lost then. Be more decisive and impactful. Take advice from experienced Labour ministers - but ON Time for budget announcements.

@TedUrchin Theres something very wrong going on within the BBC

This is what they want!

Former British MEP Nathan Gill admitted that he was paid by Russia to take the UK out of the EU.
This is how hybrid warfare works, and we are not prepared for it at all. 80 years of peace have made us naive..

Number of refugees per 1,000 people:
🇱🇧 Lebanon: 137
🇩🇪 Germany: 31
🇸🇪 Sweden: 23
🇧🇪 Belgium: 14
🇳🇱 Netherlands: 13
🇬🇧 UK: 6.5

We are not a "generous country". There is no crisis, other than a bankrupt political elite scapegoating the most vulnerable people on Earth.

GB News, owned by Australians, based in the Dubai tax haven, managed by New Zealanders.

The only British bit are the fools watching.

Belgian 🇧🇪 court convicts two for misusing EU funds linked to Nigel Farage’s Brexit group.

Europe still holding Brexit’s architects to account while Britain rewards them with TV slots and knighthoods.

What else can I do to help ?

@clairebubblepop Privatisation happened under Thatcher. Been downhill ever since.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Ed Davey, "It's so frustrating, so infuriating that Nigel Farage gets such an easy ride from the media"

"As he lies, as he divides, the BBC and others given Farage so much time and attention"

"But they never hold him to account for all the damage he has already done"

"The damage of Brexit"

"Farage was Brexit's champion"

"The damage of Donald Trump"

"Farage campaigned for Trump"

"Or the damage of Boris Johnson or Liz Truss"

"Farage backed them both

"So much that is broken in our country today is broken thanks to Nigel Farage"

[Paul Vick @PaulVick138203]

Do you think the BBC gives Reform UK to much airtime compared to all the other political parties?🤔
Repost after voting please.

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

The billionaire press barons must be having a right laugh…

Here we are distracted & arguing over asylum seekers (0.2% of the population)

Meanwhile, billionaires (just 0.0002% of the population) hoard more wealth than half the UK

Immigration isn’t draining us

Inequality is.

[sandra cobden @sandmalc]

@CarolynEley2 @BBCNews @ReformParty @Daviddavie Absolutely agree.

The people screwing you over arrive in Britain in private jets. Not small boats.

[Prof Catherine Rowett 💚 Ex-MEP @catherinerowett]

Dear BBC, your news report included rubbish spouted by Mr Farage. It's irresponsible to repeat lies, especially if they're designed to forment racist crimes.
You should always note that
1. There's no "illegal" way of seeking asylum. We already deport those who fail asylum.
