Captain Finance Farage claims he didn’t know about an almost £10k CCJ against him until Channel 4 told him – 15 mega eye rolls
A Channel 4 News investigation has uncovered a county court judgment (CCJ) against Nigel Farage over an almost £10,000 debt. CCJs, as Martin Lewis would tell you, are a close to final step in debt recovery, stay on file for six years, and affect a person’s ability to get credit.
As well as it being odd that a man who owns at least five homes and gets £5 million handouts from billionaire benefactors would have failed to pay such a paltry (to them) sum, Farage claimed he didn’t know it existed until Channel 4 brought it to his attention.
Here’s how Channel 4 reported their findings.

The details show that it’s not connected to the £9,999 owed to Brexit Party founder Catherine Blaiklock, for which a CCJ was issued against him in September last year.
Odd he wasn't aware until you bought it to his attention – is he collecting CCJ's or is this the same one he was appealing too back in Sep 2025? https://t.co/tFliwqh8hk

When you buy houses for cash, these trifling matters obviously don’t crop up. People weren’t impressed by the latest financial questions now hanging over the increasingly reclusive absentee MP for Clacton.

Apparently Nigel Farage had a CCJ against him for nearly £10k.
But he says he never knew about it.

Nigel Farage owes £9,400 and has had a CCJ against him since 2024. Apparently, he only found out about it when Channel 4 News uncovered it.
It's funny how the man who wants to get Britain back on track couldn’t even keep himself off the County Court Judgments register.

This is getting ridiculous now. We cannot have a Member of Parliament which such messy finances.
He needs to step down and let Nadine Dorries lead the party https://t.co/mx7CDl1sIZ— Florence Lox 🇬🇧🏴 (@floboflo) May 21, 2026

It's only 10k. We should cut him some slack. He's obviously an honest guy as the story about the 5 millions shows too….er….hang on. https://t.co/0aLiSBXCBG

Farage would call for the immediate resignation or removal of any politician from another party guilty of this. https://t.co/cDTJzH91Pp

🚨@Nigel_Farage claims he never received his county court judgements. Is this because they were sent to his house in Clacton, a house he claims his BANKRUPT partner bought, a house he never visits? The mail must be piling up pic.twitter.com/AI7mXqAFxU

I’ve known people who’ve had bailiffs at their door because a previous occupant at their home has unpaid county court fines.
It’s almost like the entire country just turns a blind eye if it’s Nigel Farage. https://t.co/BKUMBKUTVS

How can he run the countries finances if he can't run his own? https://t.co/tzuMODtv9G

Farage, the man who said he would happily talk about the £5m etc. after the Local Elections. He's not done that and has only appeared occasionally for carefully choregraphed interviews and photo ops since. People are starting to wake-up, and there will be no coming back from… https://t.co/8RpJ5sQ9CP
