Its often the cover up not the original issue that causes the issue.
Farage is under Parliamentary investigation over whether he should have declared a £5m donation from Thai based crypt billionaire Christopher Harborne.
Farage originally said the money was for his personal security. Now he claims it was in fact a ‘reward’ for his years of Brexit campaigning. He appears to have spent at least some of the money on buying and renovating property in Kent where he already several houses.
Why Farage pushed the original story and then changed it is unclear.
Whether there is any relation to the house in Clacton, Farage maintains was bought by and is owned by his partner, remains a matter of speculation.
Of all the political stories of 14th May this is the one that arguably has the most substance but it is not of course the one that is receiving the most coverage
