THE convicted fraudster who secretly funded Nigel Farage transferred more than $2 million to his mother shortly before she made large donations to Reform UK and an affiliated fundraising vehicle, according to reports.
Financial industry sources told the Guardian that Fiona Cottrell – who is an ex-girlfriend of King Charles – received one deposit of $1.4m and two further transfers of more than $300,000 each, and that she told bankers the money had come from her son George Cottrell when they questioned the sudden influx of cash.
