    But let’s not forget that Reform are the party of ordinary working people.

    Come on Glad. The bloke is giving his “hard earned” cash as his Personal Allowance will increase by around £2.5K if Reform get in.

    Utterly disgusting, and I don’t care which party it is, nobody should be getting that much money from one individual. Labour could of course have already put a stop to this.

    Funny how these people whine when they have to pay taxes but are quite happy to throw obscene sums at these vile grifters. I wonder if he gives anything to charity or does any actual good with his money.

    I dont have a clue (no surprise there) but how much about do unions give labour? I know they say its one man etc but does it matter who gives it, or is it he would get his questions/wishes granted?

    Thanks for any help, btw Glad could not get those things working proving my point i dont have a clue. lol

    Which, as Labour basically admitted, is the reason they haven’t brought in a cap. Doesn’t make it right. Do you think it’s right or wrong?

    Not that your figures are comparable of course, being over 16 years.

    Reform’s £72m from just two donations in the last 2 days is more than the total received by all UK political parties last year.

    Delo’s donation has been matched by another billionaire Reform backer, Christopher Harborne.

    This is where i get the £72m from. Harborne’s donation has only been made public today, i believe.

    “… how much about do unions give labour?”

    Not £36 million in one hit.

    “since 2010:”

    Spot the difference.

    I know that counting is difficult for RWNJs, but that’s over 16 years, not in one go.

    More to the point, are you so naive that you think these crypto billionaires are giving Reform millions out of the goodness of their hearts?

    If so, I have some magic beans for sale.

    Glad said “I know that counting is difficult for RWNJs, but that’s over 16 years, not in one go”

    Yep, i’m well aware. Stop being so aggressive on here. Easy to be via a keyboard isnt it?

    To put this in perspective. The brilliant Sir Kevin Sinfield who has run the length and breadth of the country over six fundraisers for MND charities has raised a massive £15 million. Less than a quarter of the donations Reform have been pledged today.
