Ben Dello, 42-year-old businessman and convicted criminal, donated £36 million to reform.
That works out to £1 million for every month between now and the latest possible date until the next general election.
It brings the total Dello has donated to the party this year alone to £44 million.
Not to be outdone, less than 24 hours later, Christopher Harbourn...
Remember him, the 63-year-old billionaire based in Thailand, pitched in with another £36 million donation.
I mean, this is essentially unprecedented in British political history as far as I know.
So even though they've had big donations in the past, that's £72 million over a weekend.
This is potentially a game-changing amount.
It's more in total than the big four or five parties spent altogether in the 2024 general election.
So this is huge amounts of money.
Both donors are Oxbridge-educated businessmen
who made their money in cryptocurrency and have largely been living abroad.
Both say they're doing it to level the playing field in UK politics.
These two splendid gentlemen who are just trying to help save Britain and fix Britain
and make us more prosperous again through Reform UK, they're not making any demands.
And there's no ask and there'll be nothing given in return.
So we're the honourable ones here.
