Money can't buy you happiness

[ellal]

How can you bribe or lobby someone if they are not even an MP?

Maybe you could tell us why rich people bother to make donations to political parties/individuals before elections?

Poor old Nige. He could lose his seat.

Poor Nigel has 5 million + sitting in his bank account.

Poor Nige.

 

[Ivor Windybottom]

If I had a spare £5 million I'd give it to Nige. Great bloke, people will be grateful to him eventually when he turns around this mess.

See it, say it.

A spokesman for Reform UK said: "Mr Farage's office is in communications with the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards.

"He has always been clear that this was a personal, unconditional gift and no rules were broken. We look forward to this being put to bed once and for all."

Anyone know what he means when he says the 5m info was gained by illegal means. Did someone hack his account and see it.

Because poor people can’t afford to, numpty.

Poor people are conned out of their hard earned just the same, by grifting politicians.

The usual swerve from the spiv

But more details about das fuhrer come out...

"Nigel Farage bought a £1.4m property in cash shortly after receiving a £5m personal gift from the crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne."

Strangely after Christopher Harborne (aka Chakrit Sakunkrit) donated to the nasty party previously, one of his companies was awarded a lucrative government contract...

What do you suppose das fuhrer will do for Chakrit Sakunkrit should he get into government?

Why do you keep saying that whenever I answer your questions? Are you an imbecile?

That’s how things work. Good luck to him. It’s how I got a lot of my contracts with my local authority. Look after the right people and they’ll look after you. It’s called 'business'.

So what? It was a personal gift and he could spend it on whatever the feck he wanted to - not unlike the personal gifts I and many others received from the government during covid thankyouverymuch (TM).

"A personal gift" is the kind of defence politicians like Netanyahu use when caught with their snout in the trough.

"Have you seen the little piggies crawling in the dirt?"
