Nigel Farage has said he is prepared to forego donations in order to defend Reform UK’s “principles” after Elon Musk turned against him – but still regards the multibillionaire as a “hero”.
Mr Farage said he had been “surprised” when the tech entrepreneur, who reports suggested had been in talks to give a large sum to the party, claimed on Sunday he “doesn’t have what it takes” to serve as its leader.
