"The MP for Clacton visited the US from July 17 to 19 directly after the state opening of Parliament and just two weeks after the general election. Mr Farage referred to US presidential candidate Donald Trump’s recent assassination as the purpose given for his visit to Milwaukee was “to support a friend who was almost killed and to represent Clacton on the world stage”."
Do you get the impression he was taking the pxxx when he filled that form in?
Taking the p confirmed.
"His entry in the recently published Parliamentary Register of Interests, shows GB News paying his company, Thorn in the Side Ltd, £97,928.40 for what amounts to 32 hours work a month."
Me too. His arrogance astounds me.
The people of Clacton have probably got an MP, that will be completely unconcerned with furthering their interests, and will use the excessive coverage he seems to get to cement division.
A vote for Reform seems to be completely wasted, as it will have accomplished nothing.
Just a vote for another party that he is involved with, that is likely to be forgotten about in the near future.
Perhaps a limit to the number of hours they are able to spend working elsewhere.
As well as a minimum number of hours that they have to spend in the HoC.
Also something like if they earn more than say £300k per year they arent able to draw their MP salary.
Not sure if serious?

Nigel Farage denies getting £98,000 monthly salary from GB News
Nigel Farage has denied being paid nearly £98,000 a month for appearing on GB News.
The Reform UK leader was responding to reports about his secondary income.
The register of members' financial interests, published on Friday, listed Mr Farage as receiving £97,928 per month from the channel.
However, writing on X, he said: "To be clear... the GB News sum paid to me and declared includes VAT, and was for several months of work. It was paid to my company, which has significant expenses."
Mr Farage told the BBC he gets a varying amount from GB News as a contractor and does not get a fixed monthly sum.
The Clacton MP is back on the channel after cancelling his show during the general election.
Mr Farage also declared on the MPs' register £4,000 per month from The Daily Telegraph and a £16,597 payment for recording private video messages on the Cameo app.
The app allows people to pay celebrities for things such as bespoke birthday greetings.
MPs already get paid £91,000 per year plus expenses.
His entry also recorded a donation of £32,836 from businessman Christopher Harborne to pay for a visit to the US following the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
The Reform UK leader stated the purpose of the visit was to "support a friend who was almost killed and to represent Clacton on the world stage".
Mr Farage, 60, became an MP at the eighth attempt when he won the Essex constituency with a majority of more than 8,000.
Other notable entries on the MPs' register include Lee Anderson, another Reform MP, declaring £100,000 a year for also working on GB News.
Foreign Secretary David Lammy was paid £49,245 by radio station LBC from August 2023 to May 2024, but he quit the role before the election was called.
Rishi Sunak - who along with his wife is a multimillionaire - recorded five helicopter trips worth over £47,000 paid for by donors.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer received tickets for 12 football games and tickets to a Taylor Swift concert in June.
