Reform UK's chronicles

It really does amaze me that people are so invested in mans finances from before he was an MP!

I wonder for all those so obsessed with it, do you declare all your earnings to a new employer and what you used those funds for?

Do you declare on your tax returns every single bit of money you are given either from work, gifts, winnings, found, saved, selling etc or do you just leave it on auto like most and not declare some of the money you get outside of work?

I wonder why no one seems to be making such a big deal about Starmer and others getting tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands from people, after all if it's bad that Farage was given money before he was an MP, then surely it must be even worse for an MP or PM to receive money from people??

Absolute hypocrites if you say it's different or it doesn't matter!

some people are triggered by the mere mention of the name Farage, fds is strong in these people,they don't see that others have done the same as it's hard to see through their blinkerd view of the world.

Farage is a thorn in the side of the 'established' politicians, they're scared of him and will use any and all means possible to discredit the bloke . . and they have a lot of influence.

They don't like it when the 'great unwashed' get ideas above their station

Got to love all the excuses given - the rules are MPs have to declare any gifts for the period 12 months before they became an MP, and he hasn’t done this…

Or, as they’re called in those who haven’t taken up residence in Farage’s ileum, facts…

It’s completely different

We live in a capitalist society. People don’t routinely run around gifting £5m here or there to their mates for nothing in return.

If I’m repairing mobile phones on the side (I’m not) and not telling the taxman my customer gets a repaired phone. What’s Farage’s “customer” getting? Farage in their pocket for 5 years? Its certainly going to focus his more than the paltry sums an MP, and even the PM earn. Just look at poor Boris. Barely enough to live on for him.

Kind of makes it easy for them by accepting millions in personal gifts, and having a convicted criminal pay for accommodation, staff, transport and so on.
