Reform MP Squirms As Audience Calls Them Party Of Billionaires

A Reform UK MP was left squirming after a member of the BBC Question Time audience branded them “a party of billionaires”.

Danny Kruger looked on awkwardly as the man won a huge round of applause for his observation.

Kruger, who defected to Reform from the Tories last September, had earlier attacked both his former party and Labour.

But the man in the audience said: “Danny mentioned two parties – one of them for capital, one for labour.

“Your party is a party of billionaires, and that’s all you’re interested in – the rich people. Not the working man, and that’s it.”

Kruger could only look on in silence as the audience applauded the man’s comment.

It emerged earlier this week that the parliamentary commissioner for standards has launched an investigation into a £5 million “gift” Reform leader received from Thailand-based crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne.

Farage has insisted that he did not have to declare the cash because he received it before becoming an MP in 2024.

In an interview with The Sun, he said the money was “a reward” for campaigning for Brexit.
