Classic. Press office has a line, Nigel just ignores it and says whatever, then they scramble to clean it up. “Thank you for Brexit… oh and also security” is such a transparent patch job.

At this point, this elaborate attempt to whitewash the situation framing it as either "illicit political funding for Brexit" or merely "a tip for a private bodyguard" is likely too implausible to convince even the most naive voter in the Clacton constituency
