We’re not saying Nigel Farage is running scared over that secret £5m gift but he even lost it with Nick Ferrari
Nigel Farage wants to talk about Andy Burnham but all anyone wants to ask Nigel Farage about is that undeclared £5m gift he got from an overseas crypto billionaire.
And how comfortable is Farage taking about it? Well, precisely this comfortable after he even got the hump with LBC breakfast presenter Nick Ferrari who’s not exactly his toughest critic. Quite the reverse, in fact.
And the barefaced fury with which Farage attempted to bat away the entirely legitimate scrutiny, the more entertaining it got.

Maybe he should go on James O’Brien’s show next time instead.
And here are just a few of the many comments the snowflake’s latest meltdown prompted.
1.
Pinocchio looks so shifty here. If any other UK party leader took a secret £5m bung from a Thailand-based crypto tycoon, and didn’t declare it, Farage would demand their resignation. And be right too. https://t.co/pXXKl6dowQ

He’s floundering terribly whenever he’s asked about the £5m.
He knows the investigation isn’t going to go his way. On borrowed time.

Chances of Farage quitting before next election, partly because he hates this sort of questioning, still underpriced. pic.twitter.com/EGrwhQ02Px

Nigel Farage is all over the place on this now. It’s incredible, given how long he’s had to come up with a clear line on it. https://t.co/EcRrpsEC0f

So Farage doesn’t know why he was given the money, says it’s none of our business what he spent it on but tells us it’s being spent on security but won’t say how much.

Holy cow!
Even Nick Ferrari twisted Farage in knots about his five million pound bung.
He’s given about seven different stories in two interviews so far this morning.
He’ll be back to his ‘essays’ after this morning’s trouncing.
