Is that what the “someone” told you?

If its none of our business, why does he have to declare it

I'm afraid that Hugh's right on this one. There is no business case to pay that amount of money to promote gold.

To borrow part of a useful phrase: spiteful warrior (in this case plural).

Military grade intelligence from Hugh who has joined the dots. If people pause their fawning of Farage for even a few seconds, they will see for themselves.

This Farage we’re talking about not Hugh’s riposte to me on military matters.

Is anything I said factually incorrect?

I don’t think that Papa was aiming directly at you. Your follower, Andrew, was the target. (@Papa: Nudge/wink.

No. But some who believe Farage can do no wrong will have problems in accepting your research and analysis. I hope for their sakes that Farage does not have to step down as an MP soon, for there would surely then be a Trumplike throwing of toys out of prams!

Speculation based on wishful thinking. Farage/Schmarage: Yes, the party depends on him. My real hope is that Kemi gets the Tories shit in order.

Speculation based on fact, not wishful thinking - it’s a fact that the owner of Direct Bullion is the Chief Strategy Officer and a Director of Stack BTC, and it’s a fact that Farage invested £280k in Stack BTC two months after the owner of Direct Bullion became a Director of Stack BTC, and it’s a fact that direct Bullion paid Farage over 10% of their equity this year for 12 hours work, and it’s a fact that the payment almost matches the investment…

Christopher Harborne allegedly fixed it so Farage's Brexit Party at the last minute did not fight Conservative seats in 2019. If he can get Badenoch to come on board with crypto, who's to say he won't ask Farage to do the same again?

The story given was that the £5 million was for Farage’s "security" (amongst other explanations) - it would appear that someone else was already paying for that*…

Quote:
We can also reveal that:

• The Reform leader received “in kind” benefits ranging from his back office to his private security, staff, transport and accommodation.

• Cottrell recruited and paid three staff to transform Farage’s social media presence, producing content on immigration, human rights law and political correctness, and that promoted Reform.

• Cottrell has been involved in a crypto-gambling platform implicated in potentially illegal betting in the UK.

• Two men — a friend of Cottrell’s and a Reform employee — owned UK companies which allowed illicit payments originally from or destined for the platform, which did not have a legally required UK licence.

• Since the election Cottrell has let Farage use a five-storey house he rents on a street near Buckingham Palace. His lawyer said: “As a close friend, our client did, and does, allow Mr Farage to stay in our client’s rental property.”

• The convict has applied for a presidential pardon in the US, where he pleaded guilty to wire fraud.

• Cottrell received an £8.5 million Chelsea property from the billionaire Reform treasurer Nick Candy in the last year. Land Registry documents say the price paid was zero. Candy said Cottrell paid him by buying shares in an offshore Guernsey company but would not specify the value of the transaction.

The code of conduct says MPs must disclose any benefit which “might reasonably be thought by others to influence [their] actions or words” on their register of interests. Its “overall aim” is to protect democracy by upholding the highest levels of transparency.

It says MPs must declare any gifts, benefits and hospitality received in the year preceding their election and which relate “in any way” to their “political activities”. The exception is “purely personal” gifts, such as presents from family. Even then, the code says “both the possible motive of the giver and the use [of the gift] should be considered”, clarifying: “If there is any doubt, the benefit should be registered.”

*no, that wasn’t declared either…
