    So wholesome to see anyone involved with farage losing tons of money betting in war.

    Wasn’t even aware betting existed for this sort of thing before seeing this. What an utterly odious way to try to make money.

    Same guy that is allegedly betting the Brighton owners money, isn’t it?

    That’s nothing, in the past he apparently lost £16 million in a single game of poker.

    He’s also spent time in the US for money laundering.

  5. He’s is a little bit more than an ‚aid‘ he is his senior advisor and also a convicted felon who in 2016 was indicted on 21 counts of conspiracy to commit money laundering, wire fraud, blackmail, and extortion.

    Oh and according to Tatler he sometimes calls Farage Daddy, what is it with the hard right weirdos wanting to be called Daddy?

    Does anyone believe for a second that they’d stop if they were in power and actually had access to insider information?

  7. We would be so incredibly fucked if these guys got anywhere near Westminster.

    If even the Torygraph is reporting on Reforms repulsive behaviour you know the tide is turning

    Is „aristorcratic banker“ a new piece of Cockney rhyming slang of which I am unaware ? /s

  9. This shouldn’t be legal.

    If people can make huge amounts of money from a war happening, you’ve created a direct financial incentive for conflict. Betting markets on sports or elections are one thing, but betting on events that involve real deaths and military action crosses a pretty obvious ethical line. Ban it, ban it now.

    What a morally bankrupt way to try to earn money. Everyone involved with reform just seem to be bereft of any decency.
