The party denies any wrongdoing.Errrr no. Caught with their pants down.Mind you, don’t suppose Reform voters will give a toss 🙄There is an element to this that the people making the documentary have a very specific point to push on climate. The idea that a funded poll was produced as neutral ain’t great but hardly Watergate. How has the film been edited to deliver the message they ? Has it been edited ? I have not seen the full programme but as I understand it other donators to Reform who have found ways round the rules were named but bleeped out in the film. This could be where NF gets in from both sides as those donators won’t want their names dragged through the mud so potentially step away, especially as they falling in the polls so the prospect of power is dropping. The other side is another potentially drawn out fraud investigation.Sadly some of the bots/supporters will be unmoved. Imagine claiming to be a patriot and supporting a man who would the country for the right price.The fact NF and Big Sam got caught by undercover reporters is funny but at least Sam was downing a much bigger glass of wine than NF.
