I'd agree he has more substance than a grifter

But if he was so minted, he surely wouldn't be doing those Cameo videos at £70 a pop

Aye.
 

If he’ll humiliate himself for £70 a video, just think what he’d do for £5 million. He’s a cunt.

Not a grifter? Course not.

So if it’s true ( I’d double check anything posted by that knob JOC) why hasn’t anything ever been done about it?

All those reform councillors turning up to dusty old town halls and scout huts this week to discuss the dog shit bins and planning permission for pedestrian crossings when they all thought they’d be firing harpoons at dinghies.

I’ve just watched Keir’s keynote speech this morning. He barely mentioned defence and made little more than a nod to the issues of energy security. He’s not waving, he’s drowning.

I’m not sure he’s grifting any more he’s minted, 20 years fighting against EU then pushing for Brexit, think there’s more substance to him than just grifting. 

He peddles narratives but does nothing to actually do anything about them, and makes a name for himself and money off the back of it

He's exploiting issues, not solving them 

All for personal gain

You could post this on the Trump thread as well.

What can be done about it? 

Most of the time when these things happen, as far as I can see, MPs resign or get sacked

He won't resign or get sacked 

Not sure if there's any other options, unless he does something against the law

Maybe Starmer agrees with him and his need for the money, why else would he not call for an inquiry? 

[Spider]

Can’t see them potting Starmer.

Dont think they have someone they can rally around except Burnham and he’s a year away at best.

Lets just put it all behind us and move on 😊

Reform Latest 

Several now suspended for various bits of bigotry.

At least 1 doesn’t exist.

Others want to stand down because they didn’t know it’s unpaid

1 thought he would be in Parliament and not replying to emails about bin collections.

It might be true but John O'Connell's a notorious bullshitter so anything he posts should be taken with a grain of salt

All true and the fucker hasn’t been an mp for 2 years yet. 
 

Nigel Farage, MP for Clacton and leader of Reform UK, was found to have breached the MPs' code of conduct 17 times by failing to register over £380,000 in outside earnings within the mandatory 28-day period, the parliamentary standards watchdog ruled in January 2026. Farage apologized for these "administrative errors," which have been resolved through a rectification process.

This can't be true, surely

Apparently the latest one to leave (Stuart Prior/Essex) had posted to social media saying that white people were the 'master race' and had 'bigger brains'.

It has been sent to the PSC who handles issues with regards to the register of interests. If there is something to been seen to be wrong ie to directly impact on voting intention then there will be a case to answer.  Certainly if he didnt declare it - which he didnt

The issue is its murky as, basically its a huge sum of money and could be seen as bribary to follow as certain path - certainly from a man such as Harbourne. 

He could be forced to oay a hefty fine which usualy means stepping down in disgrace. Its not a criminal matter and his supporters dont care so its no disgrace for someone qoth zero shame, after all - its what he's in this for, myself and money.

The one that doesn’t exist, that has to be bollocks? Wouldn’t that have been noticed when he won at the count?

Surely there must be an AI algorithm that Farage could just put in the names of all the candidiates Reform has, put 'racist tweats and posts' and hey ho - vetting done?

We're in Trump territory aren't we? Any attack on him (however justified) is seen by his sycophants as more evidence that 'the establishment' is out to get him.
