Given the current polls and the possibility of Reform making wins in Scotland and Wales, will the MSM be covering this as loudly as it needs to be or will be treated as Tice's tax dodging and forget it immediately?

Could explain where the mobey came from for the house in Frinton. But if it's in another persons name, not his spouse, did he gift her the money out of the £5m and if so surely it would have triggered an IHT liability as a gift if that size would have exceeded the IHT allowance. Just asking?

An Older reclusive millionaire english right wing gentleman that enjoys life in thailand… hmmmmmmmm wonder whats on his hard drives that would lead him vulnerable to blackmail….

This is far more like it. Shine your spotlight on the crooks, charlatans and liars who seek to disrupt, divide and destroy rather than on a prime minister who happened to make an error of judgement and apologised for it on numerous occasions.

Farage did enormous damage to the country with his Brexit lies. He left the country culturally divided, plagued by populist extremism, and economically damaged to the tune of £100bn-a-year. That was when he was not in power. We should be terrified by the massive harm he would cause if given power

All foreign donations to UK politics, even if they come from UK citizens, should be banned. I, as a non-resident British citizen should not be allowed to donate to UK political parties.

Would these gifts be curtailed by the forthcoming change of rules on foreign donations? If so, no wonder Farage thought it was an attack on him. He and his party are majority owned by a non-dom dual national.

Pippa he’s an imposter a fraud he was on BBC with his suntan this morning he treats Parliament with contempt and those that say they’ll vote for Reform need to wake up. He’s an agent for Harborne and all those crypto billionaires never a man of the people.

That would be the end of any Labour leader / Lib Dem leader / Green leader. But thanks to our Right wing biased MSM the toad will deny it and will carry on with business as usual.

Tory chair Kevin Hollinrake says he’s referring Farage to parliamentary standards commissioner. "As a new MP, Farage was obliged to report to the House of Commons all political donations and political gifts he had received during the previous 12 months”.

But also, since Farage says it was payment for security bills over many years, shouldn't it have been declared every year, pro rata. When the financial benefit was experienced.

It won't matter, Farage is like teflon. Nothing he does makes enough waves in the media for it to stick. Everyone seems to already have forgotten about his ex-schoolmates' horrid experiences with him.

Will you be running this story tomorrow like you did with Starmer? How about asking him why he didnt vote to refer Starmer? Perhaps go back to how his girlfriend got the money for the house Is it mortgaged? Who's name is it in now? Who is responsible for the council tax?

So Farage might be investigated by the Parliamentary Standards Committee. I bet he's shitting himself. They'll "investigate", put a statement out saying he should have declared it, he'll put a statement out saying "genuine oversight, sorry and all that, won't do it again", and that'll be it.
