Explain yourselves bongs. https://news.sky.com/story/nigel-farage-facing-investigation-over-5m-gift-from-british-crypto-billionaire-13543596
Hate farage but i dont have a particular issue with this, so many MPs blatantly break the law to fill their pockets
>>535070658UK Gov refused to fund his security detail when they fund the security of other party leaders. They did this because they want him killed. So he raised private money for his own protection, rather than burdening the taxpayer.
>>535070658Get your news from somewhere else, pondscum.
>>535070658>Explain yourselves bongs.Explain what? He got a gift before he was an MP like it says in the picture.
>>535071266Spent over a mil of it on a house though.
>>535071724>Spent over a mil of it on a house though.Investing in property is wise.
>>535071266Still should have declared it.
does he have to also report the 50p his gran gave him for sweets when he was 6
>>535071724That's the beauty of it.If he raised the money privately, it's his to do with as he pleases and none of the government's or the taxpayers business.If the taxpayer was funding the security, then of course that money shouldnt go towards anything else.Nothing will happen, except maybe the taxpayer will now have to pay millions to fund a security team for him.
>>535071841This depends on the details, according to the rules themselves. So let's see. It's not the gotcha his enemies think it is.
>>535071841>Still should have declared it.Don't you only have to declare capitol gains tax? As it was a gift surely you don't. He wasn't an MP at the time.
>>535070658>get million for security>within the 12 months of becoming an mp>doesn't have to declare it as it was within the rulesBillions spent on security for the government by the tax payer is totally fine though on top of all the other bullshit like flights and hotels
>>535070658lollmao
>>535070658I doubt giving Farage £5 million will make Star Citizen come out any faster.
>>535071199It was given before he was an MP, but had to declare it anyways is the shit take from this. Just another day for Hope not Hate rummaging through someone's wheelie bin.
