So it turns out Reform are laundering their donations through crypto, before converting them into cash, hiding the original source of the money.
So who is really funding Nigel Farage and Reform UK?

A cornerstone of so many offences is behaviour that falls below that expected of an ordinary person. Dishonesty is a classic example of this. Reasonable is another.
Ordinary people should therefore be the ultimate decision makers as to whether the behaviour has fallen below such a standard. /1
Imagine coming up with a proposal so stupid, so unworkable, so thoughtless, that it makes Robert Jenrick look sane by comparison.

Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby The Great Gatsby Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts. "There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. .. It was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?" It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe. It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism. CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS The GREAT GATSBY FITZGERALD

-FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.
