Former UKIP Leader Nigel Farage Earns £270,000 in 12-Hour Gold Bullion Sales Event

Former UKIP Leader Nigel Farage Earns £270,000 in 12-Hour Gold Bullion Sales Event

Nigel Farage has made hundreds of thousands of pounds promoting Direct Bullion, a gold investment company, but stopped using it earlier this year after controversy over his promotional videos.

Farage's only new declarations in the latest register are from GB News and Direct Bullion, where he served as a brand ambassador.

Labour Party chair Anna Turley criticized Farage, saying his gold promotion earnings show that he "pretends to be on the side of ordinary working people but in truth he's just in it for himself and will sell his time to the highest bidder."

Farage's links to crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne have also drawn attention, particularly a £5 million "gift" he received from Harborne in January 2024, which is currently under investigation by the parliamentary standards watchdog.

Farage initially claimed that the money was for security, but later said it was a "reward" for his years of campaigning for Brexit.

In a series of tense TV interviews, Farage refused to disclose how he spent the £5 million, saying that it was an "unconditional gift" and that he could spend it on anything he wanted.
