As for criticism I think I'll continue and ignore your demand to 'shut up' since I want to hold politicians to a higher standard than not breaking the law. Although in case I have not been particularly animated about Farage's funding other than to point out that it's a valid question for the media to ask.

Similar rules apply for the EU parliament although they are somewhat poor at applying them.
The benefits "in kind" include being flown to the US, claims of "Party" benefit cannot wash, as Farage left UKIP and still personally benefitted from the house & car. Whilst more recently has been vehemently claiming no Brexit Party Ltd funding from Banks.
