The Great Farage Funding Timeline
“He’s a symptom, not a cause.”
Introduced by @carolecadwalla, all the facts we’ve unearthed about Nigel Farage’s biggest benefactor, Christopher Harborne, plus other key facts reported elsewhere, now in one handy reference resource
I believe Clacton deserves an MP who will spend their time shining a light on everything the area has to offer. And why wait till I'm elected? I've been to visit one of the constituency's most stunning landmarks.
Shit. Was it the £5m bribe? The £1m to throw an election? The freebies from a convicted fraudster? Lying about who bought my £885k house to avoid stamp duty? Being investigated by the police and the NCA? The pointless by-election? The dodgy donations..?
Now that face looks remarkably similar to someone who shouts from Dubai at every opportunity to deflect and distract.

I AM SO FUCKING TIRED OF LIVING IN A WORLD WHERE THE PEOPLE MAKING THE BIGGEST DECISIONS ABOUT OUR LIVES ARE THE ONES WHO WILL NEVER HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR FUCKED UP ASS DECISIONS
There's a lot of SHOCKED reaction in the papers today that Arron Banks could be capable of intimidating and surveilling a journalist.
As if...he'd never done such a thing before.
Thank you @lionelbarber for the only article that hasn't tried to pretend this is his first rodeo
I thought I could end the Parliamentary Investigation while being seen to take on The Establisment. Instead, the investigation carries on after I've wasted my summer fighting a bin.
I disagree so much but I guess that's why I'm long out of the newspaper game. This isn't 'speaking truth to power" - HMG staff travel up and down country all the time, the new PM has been in office barely a few weeks, the fact a senior Cabinet Office civil servant "lives in London" is not brave journalism it is, frankly, small time utter irrelevance. Mail did same to Peter Salmon when he ran BBC Salford but lived down south. I could name you many senior business leaders do same or reverse.
…like Fratton that defined its club. A down to earth cauldron in amongst terraced streets.
Can we build a time machine back to the 2010s and just make them build a bigger Chicken Run? It’s all they ever needed to do.
Got to feel for West Ham fans suffering that place. 14/14
Imagine living in the small and resentful world that has this idea and pursues this news story. Get a life Mail on Sunday! Can you imagine a US paper running a story like this… of a US state dept senior person taking a train from Penn to DC? They truly hate the north…
"He doesn't live here…. what right has he got to interfere with our democracy?"
Richard Tice talking about Thailand based crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne, who gave me £5 million.
Oh sorry… my mistake! He was talking about George Soros.
The reality is Reform are absolutely terrified of any investigation of their finances. Nigel Farage’s crazy Clacton stunt. The private investigators. The attacks on the NCA. This isn’t normal politics. It’s something much deeper.
The UK media has been accused of giving Nigel Farage an easy ride. Now social media influencers are fact-checking his anti-immigration rhetoric.
