Does not bother me. Also he donates his mp salary to charity, or at least he did before he had his own party to run - he probably reinvests it into the party now.

The thing is, if he can get money from posting on x, then other politicians of all persuasion can do so too.

Fashfluencer.

Still, his far right nutters are keeping Farage from power, so he's got that going for him.
