Want to know why @Nigel_Farage is still in politics?
Look no further than his register of financial interests which is now 9 pages long!
In the last 10 months he’s made hundreds of thousands of pounds and dedicated thousands of hours to non-MP and non-Reform related ventures.

Lidl have called bullshit on Reform UK
The whole #Torfaen Reform team @cllr_thomas, @jason_oco and @cllr_alanslade have been lying about opening a Lidl (in the neighbouring ward).
Just for the record, there's a by-election in Torfaen today.
