Crypto Billionaire Funds Reform UK | Perth News
Description
Crypto billionaire Ben Delo just dumped a record-breaking £36 million on Reform UK, the biggest single political donation in British history, fueling Farage’s push for electoral reform amid mounting scrutiny over party finances and foreign funding. Delo, who recently returned to the UK, frames his gift as a commitment to fair elections—not a cartel—and vows Reform should prioritize governing over fundraising. But Parliament’s new rules—capping overseas donations at £100K and freezing crypto contributions—are seen by Reform as an attack on their lifeline. Meanwhile, police probe claims of hidden foreign donations, while Farage faces questions over a £5 million gift he says was non-political.
