FARAGE £5M WAS FOR SECURITY, OR BREXIT, OR WHATEVER YOU'RE HAVING
Nigel told the Sun his £5m from Christopher Harborne was 'a reward for campaigning for Brexit for 27 years', which surprised everyone who'd been told it was for security. Now a close aide, filmed undercover, says the Brexit-reward version was 'not press office line' – confirming Reform does have a line, and Nigel just isn't on it. A standards investigation is pending, so we'll say no more, other than: where do we sign up?
THE BORING BIT: WHAT THE REAL REPORT SAYS
Farage told the Sun the £5m from Christopher Harborne was 'a reward for campaigning for Brexit for 27 years'; officially it was described as being for security; aide Dan Jukes filmed undercover saying that was 'not press office line'. A standards investigation is pending.
Our short summary of the original – read the full report for context. Everything above it is satire.
