"Unlike most political parties, Reform was founded in 2018 as a private limited company, with Farage holding the majority of shares." In 2024, during the period leading to the election, when Farage received this £5 million gift he was basically the owner of Reform. bbc.co.uk 2/

In other words Farage received this £5 million gift in 2024, probably around April, just weeks before the election was called, when Farage ran as a Reform MP and was elected, he'd owned Reform since 2018 as a Ltd company with the controlling share, but he wasn't involved in politics? Really? 3/ Exactly, how can Farage have been the majority shareholder in Reform Ltd, who ran a massive amount of candidates in the 2024 GE, and not be involved in politics? The intellectual gymnastics, defies belief. It has been reported that Farage received this "gift" to stand as an MP. 4/ It's impossible to keep up with the Ltd companies Farage uses to control his parties, their names, their arrangements, the explanations for what the £5 million gift was for and Christopher Harborne's donations to Reform UK. channel4.com 6/

But the main point is how can Farage claim not to have been involved in politics when he received this £5 million gift, when he had essentially owned Reform UK for 6 years at this point in time, and Reform was a major player in the 2024 general election? 7/ These methods of convoluted company structures, repeated changes, different and contradictory claims and explanations, are the standard practices of those involved in shady practise. Most Reform voters haven't got a clue about what Farage stands for. 8/
