‘Gold has long been the financial refuge of the terrified racist’* One of Farage’s jobs is promoting the sale of gold coins
Aside from his actual job as MP for Clacton, Nigel Farage continues to drone on as a commentator on Reform UK Ltd’s broadcasting arm GBNews, amongst numerous other ‘jobs’
The Guardian revealed at the end of 2024 that he is also acting as an ambassador for Direct Bullion. Although words like grift immediately come to mind with Farage in fact it is a perfectly legitimate company which promotes the sale of gold coins.
As Farage notes the value of gold has maintained and is capital gains tax free in the UK.
The coins are produced by the Royal Mint and can be acquired direct from them at a current cost of £2,139 a coin
