  1. Move on, nothing to see here. Rules only apply to left wing politicians.

  2. I’m sure the right wing press will jump on this lapse and demand he step down.

  3. Look how proud he is to have paid $20 to have his photo taken next to a convicted rapist, fraudster and probable paedo.

  4. Two tier Farage. It’s amazing how the political and media class indulge and indulge him.

    He’s done so much harm to politics.

  5. >The Reform leader has not revealed who paid for the trip or reported any earnings he may have received

    And why haven’t the media been harassing him over this, it’s clearly a huge issue. He’s being bought for in front of our eyes and nobody is holding him to account.

  8. And he will face zero consequences because his party is not democratic.

  9. Right, lets see if the public hold Farage to the same standards that they demand of Labour MPs. Sure Reform are not in government but Farage is a party leader and has recently been very vocal about MPs integrity.

    ‘Farage missed prime minister’s questions and used time before his party’s local election campaign to appear as the “special guest” at an event hosted by the Republican Party of Florida. According to promotional material for the Disruptors Dinner, guests could pay up to $25,000 for a “Trump Sponsor” hospitality package. This included a ticket to a VIP reception hosted by Farage and a photo opportunity with the Clacton MP.’

    Farage was part of Trumps hospitality package. Truss and Johnson do this on the regular as well. But not when they were MPs. Starmer got shit for doing his job as a QC, getting book royalties and buying his mothers donkey sanctuary a field when he was leader of the opposition.

    Sure Farage isn’t leader of the opposition, but he thinks he is and so does most of the British public. I wonder what the publics reaction to this will be?

    Cool speech from Farage as well. How about this zinger?

    “You gave us woke. So in return we gave you Prince Harry … Please keep him.”

    Harry has recently given over a million of his own cash to children in need. Also unofficially represented the country in an extremely respectful way in Ukraine. And getting some more help to injured Ukrainian soldiers. Bit more useful than whoring yourself out to Trump IMO.

    Shame the Times didn’t hold back on this story for a couple of months because apparently Farage’s office had no idea they were supposed to file this…

    ‘Farage’s spokesman said: “We thank The Sunday Times for bringing this to our attention — the record will be updated in due course.”’

  10. And at what point do things like this trigger a response from the various independent bodies that protect the public from rule breakers? Or do they only count for working class people, and not private school Dulwich College educated, City of London stockbrokers, like Farage?

    He also sure as shit isn’t representing the people in his constituency, they haven’t seen him for months, allegedly. Almost as if he parachuted himself in to a constituency most likely to vote his way. Once a grifter, always a grifter.

  11. This happens a lot. I don’t see the issue except more desperation to stop Farage and Reforms amazing rise.

  12. Starmer needs to introduce even tougher rules about this sort of thing and it’s something that’s likely to actually go down well with the public because of the general dislike for politicians.

  13. He is above such menial peasant things like ethics and honesty.

  14. Along with his tax dodge house purchase in essex , his tax dodge on his media earnings… still waiting to see that plastered all over the bbc news …..
