Thai-based crypto businessman Christopher Harborne, the party’s biggest donor to date, matched the record £36m donation given on Friday by fellow cryptocurrency tycoon Ben Delo. Reacting to the news, Mr Farage said he was honoured and humbled that the pair had “shown such confidence in Reform”. He added: “Both men know that we are the only party that can turn the country around and win the next general election – thanks to their generosity, we are now able to fight that election on a level playing field.” Mr Harborne said: “There will be a lot of media speculation regarding this donation. So what do I expect in return for my donations? Nothing. No peerage, no policy change, just a Party that is ready for government. “I have already accumulated enough wealth for the rest of my life. I am committed to put putting that to work for Britain and humanity as a whole. I want the same as everyone else in Britain: for my children and grandchildren to have the chance to live happy and productive lives here and be rewarded for their hard work. “At the next general election people will have to vote for the party that they think will best get that done and I’m making a donation very clearly to the Party that I believe will do so.” This is a breaking news story, more follows...
