Secret Financial Backing: The investigation reveals that in the year leading up to Farage being elected as the MP for Clacton, Cottrell provided him with substantial undeclared benefits. This included paying for private security, drivers, and hiring three dedicated staff members to manage Farage's social media presence.

The Luxury Townhouse: Cottrell allegedly allowed Farage to live in and operate out of a rented five-storey Georgian townhouse near Buckingham Palace.

The Business Cards: Despite having no formal, official role within the Reform UK party, Cottrell was handing out official Reform UK business cards. The cards were printed with his own name, the official party logo, and Farage’s personal parliamentary/official email address.

Cottrell's Background: Cottrell is a high-stakes crypto-gambler who served eight months in a US federal prison in 2017 after pleading guilty to wire fraud following an IRS sting involving shadow banking and money laundering services on the dark web.

>George Swinfen Cottrell, otherwise known as “Posh George”. A babyfaced British aristocrat and former US federal inmate, he has no official role in Reform UK — but has been Farage’s closest adviser for more than a decade and travels with him in Westminster and around the country.

>in 2014, Cottrell offered anonymous drug dealers help laundering the proceeds of crime into bitcoin. Adopting the pseudonym “Bill”, he travelled to Las Vegas to meet his clients in the flesh, outlining how he could move hundreds of thousands of dollars

>Farage and Cottrell travelled back together, flying via Chicago’s O’Hare airport. The men were heading onto their connecting flight when federal agents seized Cottrell. It transpired that, two years earlier, when Cottrell had offered his money-laundering services he was speaking not to drug dealers, but to undercover federal agents.

>Cottrell recruited and paid three staff to transform Farage’s social media presence, producing content on immigration, human rights law and political correctness, and that promoted Reform.

>The Reform leader received “in kind” benefits ranging from his back office to his private security, staff, transport and accommodation.

> Cottrell has been involved in a crypto-gambling platform implicated in potentially illegal betting in the UK.

>Two men — a friend of Cottrell’s and a Reform employee — owned UK companies which allowed illicit payments originally from or destined for the platform, which did not have a legally required UK licence.

> Since the election Cottrell has let Farage use a five-storey house he rents on a street near Buckingham Palace. His lawyer said: “As a close friend, our client did, and does, allow Mr Farage to stay in our client’s rental property.”

> The convict has applied for a presidential pardon in the US, where he pleaded guilty to wire fraud.

>Cottrell received an £8.5 million Chelsea property from the billionaire Reform treasurer Nick Candy in the last year. Land Registry documents say the price paid was zero. Candy said Cottrell paid him by buying shares in an offshore Guernsey company but would not specify the value of the transaction.

What is happening in Blackburn!? The other week a cafe got firebombed and then a Muslim person's home in Lammack. And in Bolton some Imam's house for firebombed.

Is this it? Is this how it goes now.

What's happened to our country?
