    Dec 13 2024

    Elon Musk - the world's richest man - will donate some money to Nigel Farage's Reform UK party, one of Farage's key allies has said.


    There is speculation that Musk could be about to donate after Farage appointed property billionaire Nick Candy as his party's treasurer.


    Asked if Musk will donate Banks told GB News' Chopper's Political Podcast: "I'm sure he will do but not to the extent of £100 million, I don't think. No."

    He added: "Dollars, pounds .... there's still a lot of money but I suppose he's got UK companies and that's traditionally it's acceptable to donate through that. Let's see what happens."
