Billionaire property developer gifts Reform UK at least a million pounds

NIGEL FARAGE’S finances have been boosted, and his man-of-the-people image tarnished, after a billionaire property developer gifted his Reform UK party at least a million pounds.

Nick Candy announced the donation at a photocall with Reform’s owner and leader as the party continues to surge in opinion polls.
