@johngibbons.bsky.social Ah John, just heard you talking about Llangollen and the Trevor basin and amazing aqueduct - what a lovely place and great top tip! 🙌 We went there last year and loved it… could have chatted about it when I bumped into you in Nova Scotia after the Como game last week! 😊

And there’s more… More lies, more dodgy deals and denials.. Farage has bought 4 houses for cash since 2020 - the year we left the EU. And declared only 2 of them. Come on people. The man’s a hot mess of corruption, racism, national security threat and greed. Let’s bin him off.
From 'skint' in 2017, the Reform UK leader now owns five mortgage-free homes with his partner Laure Ferrari.
Only two have been declared to parliament

Nigel Farage and his partner have managed to build a mortgage-free property portfolio worth more than £4 million over the past decade.

So finally we know what “Brexit benefit” actually means.. A £5million payment to Farage. Our country is now deeply divided, poorer, unhappier, less influential, less secure, less welcoming and less democratic… But Farage is a multimillionaire. What a fucking disgrace.

French publication Le Monde says Laure Ferrari ‘dodged’ question when quizzed over property purchase in Clacton Nigel Farage’s partner, Laure Ferrari, has refused to confirm how she paid for a house in the Reform leader and MP’s constituency of Clacton, adding “there’s more than one way to pay for a house”. In an interview with French publication Le Monde, Ferrari was questioned over revelations in the Guardian that she had purchased a house in her name in Clacton after Farage had claimed to be the buyer.

The man behind donations of £200,000 to Reform is a church warden from Potters Bar, who just happens to work for a billionaire from Kazakhstan. But it's definitely not money laundering or interference in UK politics by a foreign national.
