Tesla CEO Elon Musk may be on the verge of escalating his war of words with Prime Minister Keir Starmer by funding Nigel Farage to the tune of £80 million. To put that figure into context, in the second quarter of 2024, which included a general election campaign, all British political parties combined chalked up donations of just £55 million.
Farage's Reform Party received the third highest vote share at this year's general election, with 14% of the vote, but is only the seventh largest party in parliament due to the "First Past The Post" electoral system.
