      > But speaking to broadcasters on Tuesday, Farage said the £5m gift was „purely private“ and „wasn’t political in any sense at all“.

      LOL.

      Ah yeah, because that doesn’t sound villainous at all.

      Anything other skeletons going to come out of this man’s closet? 

    4. callthesomnambulance on

      Yes up is down, black is white, and that £5 million was just a show of personal affection with no political bearing whatsoever.

      If he succeeds in wriggling out of this it’s a clear sign that our political and media ecosystem is exactly as fucked as I think it is.

      The system is just a nonsense if this actually works as a loophole. If it genuinely was a no strings gift for his security he should have had no problem declaring it as such.

      Starmer gets raked over the coals for a free suit and some glasses and this clown gets 5mil and the media looks the other way. Pathetic double standards.

    7. baxty23 on

      If he generously received £5m for “security” how come he still can’t hold constituency surgeries because of “security”.

    8. billy_tables on

      I checked out the system completely, inside out, upside down, and there was no reason whatsoever for me to admit to this deeply suspicious thing which I will not be taking questions on

    9. Hefty_Macaroon_2214 on

      Clearly a man of the people with no ethics – even a gift to a man who then becomes a politician after being an MEP is highly suspect and questionable

    10. OkContribution6454 on

      Thats just the £5m we found out about. This skintag needs to jog onto his next grift.

    11. Fluffy-Republic8610 on

      Ooh. This could be enough to take him out. This is his Marie le pen moment.

    12. Dennyisthepisslord on

      So depressing working class people think he has their interests at heart

    13. TheRebelPercy on

      Obviously, the crypto billionaire who lives in Thailand, Christopher Harborne, will want nothing in return for the £5 million gift and was just giving the old boy a helping hand.

      Nothing to see here. WHY WONT STARMER HELP TRUMP BOMB IRAN? SOFT BASTARD.

    14. Common-Ad6470 on

      Great, so now this is the standard, I’m going to not declare my wages, not pay any tax and tell HMRC that if it’s good enough for Farage, it’s good enough for me…👌

    15. GayWolfey on

      His excuse falls down as he is blaming the home office for needing it as they wouldn’t provide him security. Well his Billionaire friend would have security so he could have just given him the security.

      Problem is he takes after Trump who jus shouts fake news at everything

    17. Turbulent-Quality-29 on

      Oh yeah it’s just like your buddy down the local giving you £5 mil from the back pocket because some local lads have been threatening you. Don’t worry mate I won’t ask for it back and if you were ever prime minister I’d never ask for any favours or government contracts etc that ain’t me.

    19. RedofPaw on

      I’m genuinely shocked this isn’t illegal.

      Wait…

      No I’m not.

      I’d say labour should move to make it illegal. But that would be a good idea, and they try to avoid those.

    20. Ashamed-Pound8963 on

      Surprise, surprise… the saggy little weasel tries to pretend the dodgy gift he received wasn’t dodgy.

      Bet the media will give him a free pass on this.

    21. ColonialSack on

      I can’t recall if it’s just in the ministerial code or in the code of conduct for All MPs, but I recall a pair of rules (paraphrased)

      * the MP/Minister must ensure that no conflicts of interest arise
      * the perception of a conflict of interest, is itself a conflict of interest

      I don’t give a damn what way you spin it or what supposed contracts are signed – a £5m gift has a massive stink of conflict of interest.

    22. ohdeydothodontdeytho on

      Man of the people our Nigel. Really understands the plight of the working class.

      It’s amazing that people are actually contemplating this er…person…who could probably outdo Trump in terms of damage he could do to a nation.

      What is going on in people’s minds.

    23. fitzgoldy on

      Strictly, was there an obligation?

      He received it before he even was an MP, right?

      Dodgy as fuck of course.

    24. cheeseley6 on

      Of course it’s political. If he wasn’t actively engaged in highly divisive politics, then he wouldn’t think he needs security.

      Plus, now that he has security, why can’t he hold in person surgeries at his constituency, which is his actual job?!

    25. KoffieCreamer on

      Why is anyone even surprised anymore? Look at what is going on in the states. Literally protecting pedofiles, insane Stockmarket manipulation with the Iran war among hundreds of other things and no one gives a shit or is completely powerless to doing anything.

      It’s slowly moving into our country now with things like this and not a single person will do anything about it unfortunately. The political sphere is totally corrupt and screwed, it’s all on show and these grifters get away with everything.

    26. EasyTumbleweed1114 on

      He thinks we’re stupid, and based on his 30% in the polls he’s right. We deserve this

    27. cdh79 on

      Oh if Nige says so then……. better double check it, and get an independent evaluation, a professional opinion and a lawyer with experience in that area. Because at this point you’d be stupid to trust anything he says, again.

    28. AI-Slop-Bot on

      Lock him up. If he’s given him £5m for security how is it not politically motivated?

    30. All-Day-stoner on

      The double standards of the British media is shameful after the absolute bashing of Starmer over a few spectacles. Fucking hypocrites

    32. KvalitetstidEnsam on

      Soooo…this is a non-political gift because *he says so?!??!?!??*

      I am going to try that one on with compliance at work: „honest guv, it’s just a two week jaunt to the Maldives fron vendor X, there are absolutely no strings attached, totes pinky promise…“

    33. Send_me_hedgehogs on

      He’s. trying to use the fat orange bitch’s playbook: just brush off any accusations, normalise corruption, ignore the spirit of the law when it’s convenient to do so and point to everyone else as ‘people who hate This Beautiful Nation’. He is showing us who he is and we need to believe him.

    34. Swimmy on

      >“I’ve been the most attacked, physically, politician of modern times,“

      In terms of milky beverages maybe.

    35. forzafoggia85 on

      Cool, so we have no obligation to declare a gift from family members before they pass away to avoid inheritance tax then?

    36. vicott on

      It was not political but to enable him to do politics by having security.  Lol, these lawyers should really talk to him.

    37. Shitelark on

      Starmer has ‚5 Million reasons‘ why Farage shouldn’t be a party leader to discuss at PMQs.
