Nigel Farage FALLS APART When CONFRONTED By Several Journalists About His DODGY DEALINGS!

How much of your salary do you spend on beer, on petrol?It's none of your business.

I think it is the public...

Alright, so earlier today I posted Nigel Farage's interview with Nick Ferrari, where Nick Ferrari confronted him about his dodgy 5 million crypto donation.Well, it emerges that he appeared on all of the Breakfast Morning shows and was asked the same question on all of them, and so I have compiled all of them together so you can watch his multiple meltdowns in multiple different studios.

get closer to a general election, whether it's on the original schedule or as you expect next May, is whether Reform UK is seen as a protest vote or seen as serious.So let me ask you something about you.Would you be happy if the next Prime Minister of this country secretly banked a five million pound cheque from a billionaire whose business interests he was promoting?

Well I would refute that entirely.I'm not promoting his business interests.I've been I asked you in general as a principal, I hadn't come to you, but would you be happy if any candidate to be Prime Minister banked a secret cheque for £5 million?I'm sorry, why is it secret?

Well you didn't reveal it, it was revealed by the newspaper you'd taken £5 million.

Why should I?

Because we believe that people should govern in the national interest, not in the financial interests of themselves or their supporters.

I wasn't in politics.You're telling me you weren't discussing becoming an MP?

I interviewed you about it, Mr Farage.

We did a 40 -minute interview about whether you might become a member of Parliament.

It was a very, very difficult decision.England's making a mistake by coming up with the idea of effectively a public crypto coin, if you like, a sort of digital currency, an official one.But you're promoting something that would massively financially benefit a man who gave you £5 million, and you didn't think we deserved to know it?

No, hang on.Number one, I wasn't in politics.Number two, I don't believe there's anything in the rules that says I had to declare it.Number three, of course it is being investigated by standards, so perhaps I'd better not say too much.And lastly, Even if the UK, even if London became a centre for crypto trading, it would still be a minute part of the global market.And the fact that a marketplace would happen here would not influence the price directly in any way at all.

Let's be clear, there is an inquiry into whether you broke the rules.I've just said that.Yeah, no, there is.But also, you'd have to declare it within a year of becoming a politician.It isn't just at the time you are a politician and they'll assess what you think.If.

If.

If.it seemed to be a donation linked directly to political activity.

that while we have rules on taking money, particularly vast, unimaginable sums for most people in the country, £5 million into your own bank account, we have those rules to be sure that you're doing what is in our interest and not in your interest.So it's very clear, Mr Farage, you've got lots of generous benefactors.You could give this money back.

Well, Boris Johnson got a gift from the same person.

Will you give this money back?

Will you give your salary to charity?

How about that?How about that?

I'm not running to be Prime Minister.If you give your entire salary to charity then maybe I will.I'm not running to be Prime Minister.You are the main interviewer for our national broadcaster.You equally have a very responsible job.position.

One day maybe I'll come onto your interview programme and you can interview me.But meanwhile I'm interviewing you about you becoming Prime Minister and taking on the most important job.Will you give the money back?

What on earth has that got to do with you?If I did, it would be a purely private matter, as the money was in the first place.Well, you could say no, but it sounds to me like you're saying you might give it up.Well, I don't think it's any of your business, frankly.And if, however, if the Standards Commissioner decides that it is, we'll talk about it again.

Understood.Now, the reason I say it's of interest, of course, is that you mocked the Prime Minister, he is still the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, and your party attacked him for taking money for free glasses and for suits.By one calculation, this is one 271th of the amount of money you've taken.If Starmer shouldn't have taken money for glasses and suits, surely...You should not take money.

He was leader of the opposition.I was a broadcaster on GB News.I think there is..

.Right now, you're going to get cross with me, but I'm going to ask you about this.This five million quid that you took as a gift from the crypto millionaire Christopher Harbourn, who lives in Thailand.You've described it variously as something Something that would pay for your security for years because of the huge physical threats that you do face and I'm very aware of that.You've also talked about it being a reward for all your work on Brexit.Harporn has given many millions more to the party which has been declared.

You did not declare this money because you said it was a private gift.You weren't in Parliament.You're now being investigated by the Privileges Committee.This is being thrown around on social media.It has been hugely damaging to you.Do you regret not declaring that money?

No.Why not?

Because it's a purely private matter.It had nothing to do with politics whatsoever.I don't believe the rules in any way suggested that I should.So I didn't.And it wasn't a donation.It was a gift.

Unconditional gift.All right.Now, as for his motives for doing that, well, I think he thought that maybe having given up a quarter of a century of my life, given up a good career in the city of London, faced all the abuse, you know, perhaps he thought I deserved it.But that's irrelevant.It was unconditional gift.So whether you know, and I made it very clear that I will need to have protection to the day I die, whenever that is, and none of us, of course, quite know the answer to that.

And that would be its primary purpose.But frankly, I can do with the money as I wish.It is with the Standards Commissioner.I believe, having looked very carefully with lawyers at the rule book, that I'm in the right.

Most people think of a gift as, I don't know, a bottle of champagne, a box of chocolates.Not five million quid.Do you understand why most of us find it absolutely impossible to believe that someone who lives on the other side of the world, no matter how much he loves Brexit, and I don't think anyone loves it more than you and me, that they would go, you know what, Nigel, love you, here's five million quid, no strings attached.Do you understand why that frankly is not believable?

I think you'll find he voted in Hampshire, so I think you'll find that's where home actually.But whatever.Yeah, they may well do.And people inherit vast sums of money and all sorts of things happen in life.

He's not your dad.You didn't inherit it.

People inherit money.

He's a crypto billionaire living on the other side of the planet.And he gave you a...But again, you talked about, you said this is an unconditional gift.Is it a gift, a reward, or is it for your security?

unconditional gift.I can spend it on Ferraris if I wish to, all right?

Are you spending it on Ferraris or are you spending it on your security?

None of your business.

The thing is, when politicians get freebies, even if it's before they're politicians, the rulesare very clear that if it's before a year, up to a year before you become elected as an MP, and I do accept that at the time that you were given this gift, you were not an MP and you were not planning to return at that time.I'd had conversations with people in reform around that time.Nevertheless, the rules state that you should declare that money.But did you think that Keir Starmer should have declared his free suits from Lord Alley?

Well, they were political.

How is a suit political and five million pounds?More money than most people would ever think of or ever earn or enjoy in their lives.How can that not be political?

By the way, this is a hugely successful British business.Good for him.All right, which is a good thing.Yes, good for him.Yeah, Julia, it's a private thing.It wasn't a political donation.

If you read the rules carefully, I've done absolutely nothing wrong.

Then why is there a Standards and Privileges Committee investigation into it?Why has this done so much damage?

Because they've, it has to you, and it has to the London media class, No, I don't think that's fair.

I don't think I am typical of that class, and I understand your security needs.I think you know now that it was a mistake not to declare that money.

No, I don't.And I spoke to hundreds of people in Bakerfield, walking up and down the streets over four days of campaigning, and only one person raised it as an issue.Only one person raised it as an issue.

Are you cooperating fully with the committee?

Of course.But there isn't much to say.

I mean, wouldn't it be easier?Declare it.Show the receipts for what you've spent it on for security.Round -the -clock security costs an absolute fortune.Hundreds of thousands of pounds.Job done.

This is an unconditional police downfall.

Do you think that the defeat in Makefield was anything to do with your admission that you were£5 million by a crypto billionaire?

No one cares.Apart from the media, no one cares.No one cares at all.

Standards Watchdog care because they are investigating it.

Well they are, you're right.There's been a complaint received, complaint from the Conservative Party chairman.They're investigating it.We'll see what they say.I'm absolutely convinced I've done nothing wrong in any way at all.I also know that since I was elected as an MP, I've taken zero in personal expenses.

I'm very careful and very cautious about these things.I believe it to be a wholly private matter.The Standards Commissioner may take a different view.

You had already given an interview about the possibility of becoming an MP, and then you accepted the gift.Is that right?

Yeah.And after that, I said, after that, I said I will not stand in this election.And I was pretty clear when a snap election was called that I wasn't going to do it.I did change my mind subsequently.

You've said that that £5 million was for lifelong security for you.You've also said it was a gift.Can you just clarify what it was for?

No, no, no.Let's be clear.Let's be clear.It's an unconditional gift.I can spend it on cars if I want to.It's entirely up to me, right?

But there is a specific reason for this.I have been physically the most attacked and endangered politician in Britain for now well over a decade.at every stage during that time, when I've asked the state to help and support, most times they point blank refused.I know, because of the division in politics, that I will need protection until the day that I die.And that is my intention, that is what it's for, and it means, frankly, I can get on with my job and not worry about the long term.

So Mr Farage, how much of that money have you spent?

Look, literally, none of your business, if I've given it to charity, but the truth is I haven't.I know what it's done.for.

You haven't spent any of it?

It's none of your business.It's literally none of your...How much of your salary do you spend on beer, on petrol?It's none of your business.

I think it is the public's business to know...

No, it's not the public's business.

Well, it's being investigated by the Parliamentary Standards Committee, so it's somebody's business.You're saying you need security, a legitimate point.How much of that money have you spent on security so far?

I'm sorry, well, no, I'm not going to answer that deliberately, willfully.Do you wish that you had declared this money at the time?It is not your business at the BBC to put me in danger, therefore I will not answer that.

I would just like to clarify, do not make any mistake, we are not putting you in any danger at all.

If I answer that question, you are, so I won't.

So, but you have already said that you haven't spent it.

Fine, leave it at that then.

Do you wish you'd declared it at the time?

No.

You know this is going to keep coming up again and again and again.Well, that's it.

Look, you can obsess about it, alright?That's fine.I spent, goodness knows, scores of hours in Makerfield out talking to people, out knocking on doors, meeting people of all political opinions and only one person raised it with me.So, you know, if you want to go on about it for the next three years, you go on about it.That's fine.I'm going to get on with my job.

I just wonder, you know, the people that you're talking to this morning, our viewers, the man and woman in the pub tonight watching England play football, I just wonder what they would think about someone who has got five million pounds sitting in a bank account and whether, how they can relate to that.

I wonder how they'd relate to your salary, many of them in the pub.

My salary is on the public record.

Many of them, many of them watching this programme right now.

And how do you feel maybe about facing Andy Burnham and dealing with Andy Burnham as prime minister?

Well, look, it'll be a bigger challenge than Keir Starmer, of that there's absolutely no doubt.You know, he was a great asset to reform and it was why, you know, in the Brexit voting North, we did so well on May the 7th.You know, landslide we had against the Labour Party right across the Midlands of the North.Burnham, I think, will be more astute in terms of his arguments, but I repeat the main point.I don't know What he's going to do?Is he going to put up taxes?

You know, what's he going to do?And that's why I think there has to be a public, there has to be a public debate.And the best format for that would be a general election and a choice.And if people like what Andy Burnham stands for, he'd win the general election fair and square.

Nigel Farage, thank you.

The fallout from Keir Starmer.So there you have it.Notice what happens when the supposed man of the people is finally backed into a corner.And I was really pleased to see that all news outlets this morning finally started interrogating him on this question of what he did with the five million.And he clearly didn't like it.He's built his brand, remember, on attacking the out of touch elite.

Yet the second he's asked to explain a secret five million pound payout from an offshore crypto billionaire, he throws a tantrum and screams that it's none of anyone's business.He literally compares a massive oligarch payout to buying a pint of beer.And it's another expose of his populist grift.But I think he's ultimately going to be his downfall.I mean, I think there's more to this five million story that may be his downfall.But I think that even his followers are starting to realize now that there's something not quite right.

And certainly one of the responses, one of the callers who called in after the Nick Ferrari interview admitted that he was one of his supporters.And even he's starting to smell a rat.He's playing, Farage is playing the exact same game as the establishment he claims to despise.He's just getting paid a lot more to do it.And of course, Nigel Farage is the establishment.He's been a politician for 35 years.

He talks about not being a professional politician.He is the most long serving politician that we've had infesting the waters of British politics.Anyway, let me know your thoughts in the comments below.And if you want to see more like this, hit the like and subscribe buttons and don't forget to
