"A Panic About Reform UK" | Donation Rules Under Review Amid Elon Musk Speculation

[@kevlacy5306]

But its ok to give £50 million to terrorists in Syria?

[@tonyfromchester1961]

Who sent 100 'volunteers' to work for the Kamala election campaign?

[@fredsmith5473]

That could be seen as attempt to undermine it, not that she needed any help. Nonetheless it was the wrong thing to do and showed a lack of judgement.

[@marianlonge3060]

Labour did

[@jab-gn3sw]

Liebour hypocrites as usual

[@mogznwaz]

That was just a jolly for presumably a select few. No doubt funded by taxpayers

[@Iazzaboyce]

Starmer was showing Kamala how to win an election - he forgot to mention he got 3 million less votes than Corbyn did in 2017.

[@Peradabo]

With Musk behind the party, there is no stopping it. Vote REFORM UK. Save our motherland.

[@davidmiller-bt6de]

Disband the EU and WEF that's the problem

[@TalorcMacAllan-q6g]

To much people in that corrupt organisations making money , we have to make sure we are away from them both when Labour are ousted.

[@23715]

With nine nations on the waiting list why would anyone disband the EU?

[@dingbell5498]

⁠Are they applying to contribute, or do they have the begging bowl out?

[@gregoryhouse5240]

more than 2 thirds of Labours donations came from Non-UK Born people... are Labour going to give back all that money or is it just Starmer being a fascist again?

[@lesleylamy]

No farage is the fascist , non doms they live in the uk , musk is South African and does not live here.

[@kellywalters1683]

They are scared. Its time for change!

[@lionelkirbyshire7683]

Wow, this government stinks.

[@donny121able]

He should donate today before they can block it.

[@rhysjaggar4677]

No he SHOULDN'T. This is not about you and your buddies, this is about the very bedrock of what sovereignty is about. It is NOT about an unaccountable foreigner who cannot be peremptorily summoned to answer for himself giving more money to one party than the entire amount spent by ALL parties in the last election. It has NOTHING to do with anything but a foreign oligarch buying UK democracy.

[@donny121able]

@rhysjaggar4677 lol

[@stanmusz]

@@rhysjaggar4677 Probably voted to Remain in the EU and you're talking about sovereignty. You probably voted for Labour but didn't care about Lord Alli and all the dodgy Labour donors. Hypocrites really do expose themselves 👏🤡

[@judyparsons1333]

Musk is the only one who believes in free speech and so do reform nothing wrong with that

[@AJ-ch6fu]

Funny, if they werent worried, they wouldnt care about a donation. How wonderful to watch them squirming.

[@algreen1]

Our political system needs a total overhaul

[@ImJustGoingToSay.....]

Keir changes the rules as he goes along, he thinks by doing this all he will be in power for years. The sooner he's out the better for everyone

[@Marstepolovsky]

Establishment: "Right, ban donations quick, we're losing!"

[@mchaplin66]

a dictator will not allow a rival

[@pheart2381]

This country is not even a sh/t-show anymore. It's a dysentry-show.

[@23715]

What a patriot you are.

[@Jay-gr9ij]

So true!

[@michaelbailey2476]

😂

[@djames6780]

Reform all the way.

[@Hartinmouston5158]

Wonder if Blackrock donated to either Labour or Tories. May seriously consider donating to Reform if Tories and Labour start pulling this grift

[@Littlegreenman21]

Investigations needed!

[@GeoFry3]

If they try to block him. All Elon has to do is ask his supporters to send a dollar each.

[@muffin535]

I believe his grandmother is British.

[@gjames7798]

Trying to cancel May elections. Trying to change the rules on donations! Something stinks!

[@TerenceCousins]

Labour don't like it when its not going to them!

[@nicksealey7004]

WTF is a once Great Britain doing,,,

[@islalewis70]

Elon grandmother was born in England, Liverpool !!

[@Foggy1871]

Calm down

[@ShyTalks-d8b]

Even if true, SO WHAT?

[@johnswift1736]

Means he is more british than Lord Ali

[@carolinethwaites6188]

A good place to be born genuine people Liverpool ❤❤❤❤

[@Rob-hy8vb]

2 party system is finished

[@paulchambers6537]

Hope so.

[@suestewart-g4f]

How many labour donors now have jobs under the labour government ?? I doubt Elon needs a job.

[@crumpetsbuttered]

Amazing, Cancel election, cancel funding, cancel free speech, cancel thought.... next I'll have to pay Starmer for Oxygen. Total Socialist Dictator.

[@garethjenkins1403]

Go ahead Labour it’ll be another nail in the coffin. Revealing or what. The game was up before Elon Musk. We want Reform UK as they have listened to the British people and not scorned them like Labour and the Tories have done. You cannot treat us with contempt and disrespect for much longer

[@mogznwaz]

Has our spineless establishment lost the ability to say NO?

[@clovermark39]

Good on Elon Musk backing Reform.

[@NeilHughes-ti6pz]

Starmer sent labour representatives to the states to help the Democrats. Dunce. Retaliation 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ShyTalks-d8b]

Did the Democrats give Starmer $100m for them?

[@NeilHughes-ti6pz]

@ShyTalks-d8b not the point. INTERFERENCE just The same .crybabies.

[@Fuzzyblossom]

Karmastarma!

[@harkbelial]

This is the equivalent of taking the ball home when you're losing.

[@geezershoong9191]

They'll change the rules...

[@Curryking32000]

No one has mentioned that Elon Musk has a Commonwealth citizen and the ability to vote in the UK. Elon is a US and Canadian Citizenship

[@markhorton8578]

Starmer , we cannot tolerate foreign interference, and the 100 staff I sent to the US shows how I feel about it.

[@chriskelly7834]

Ally gave starmer plenty of money what's good for the goose is good for the gander 😂

[@zoeathomson4305]

Milton Keynes this week. A school and parents have complained about illegal strangers that live in a hotel. Around the corner, have had to get police involved, some young men from the hotel were talking pictures of the children. 1 perant went to the hotel and ran around looking for the culprits 😮

[@brendamuirhead483]

Well if financial donations to reform are out of the question, could Elon just buy them all new clothes? Cos that seems to be fine with the prime minister apparently…

[@peterteagleteagle9958]

Labour, Don't like it up em

[@Wasssssup-3]

Yeah, the hypocrites at it again 🙄 do as I say , not as I do , labour meddled in American politics 😮 now the tables have turned 🙄 not liking it are you ,guess what karma is coming for starmer and his goons .

[@stanmusz]

I wish but I don't think any of these people will ever get what they really deserve, which I can't say on KZbin.

[@bakednerd]

rules for thee, but not for me

[@doggo7650]

Wonder if the Czech fellow has made a donation to Labour for taking over the Post Office?

[@mogznwaz]

If he wants a ‘family life’ then offer the whole family a one way ticket to Turkey to join him…….

[@GrantMC100]

How many multiples of £5m can be set up. Give £5m to 20 people. Let them all donate.

[@andrewbest-zr9qe]

If someone like obama or zucheburg or bessos was to donate to the labour party they would not change the rules

[@springheeledjack9652]

Only our laws matter, bill of rights

[@paulneville7154]

Take back control....

[@LyndaRaine]

There should not be shirea courts or laws in the uk

[@ChristineLoveridge-gz2er]

Sheer hypocrisy by the government if it's not in their favour.

[@Littlegreenman21]

America need to take Starmer and the Labour to court for their interference. Starmer interfered and accepted gifts and donations.

[@eddie1330]

Remember the saying when in Rome do what the Romans do, it should be the same here in the UK. If you want to live here, abide by our rules, customs and culture.

[@JonfitzFitzjohn-k6s]

Spot On Guy.s

[@katrinacarlton4805]

Get the money fast

[@leoleeuk]

It would take the only thing Labour has over Reform, they've lost popularity but got way more money than Reform but this would level the playing field and Labour can't deal with a level playing field.

[@Andy-gh9wy]

"LOAN" the money

[@DevilbyMoonlight]

we are having our values eroded

[@keeleyhutchinson8096]

Ridiculous, he should go bk yo is own country, this government should not be keeping criminals in this country locked up with our taxpayers money

[@MrBrownnn696]

Haha they are scared…

[@davidnichols1413]

if the rules don’t work for Labour alter them easy , No worries ! 💕

[@AlexDavidson-pe8pt]

Thats what happens when you have politicians who where lawyers in their past live. Get rid

[@bradtenbonga]

Changing rules about donations ? Bring it on and we can remove Unions from bank rolling Labour …

[@Fuzzyblossom]

Hope Elon gets a free pass to no10!!! Hypocrites in charge!!!

[@4321ort]

When will labour get rid off this cabinet and the idiot, otherwise they will be gone for ever,what a great thing that would be,f the unions as well.

[@DGHodgson-o8z]

Do as i say, not as i do is this governments message to the people.

[@one-lifetime]

We need to learn avoid telling people plans because they will just counter act as they do

[@neilfinnigan9825]

Real readon why the child two cap came in in 00s we spotted that scam of multi wives !

[@53weazel]

He was born in South Africa….COMMONWEALTH !

[@dingbell5498]

And we critique Putin and China for suppressing political opposition. Pot and kettle comes to mind.

[@SH-bl4ej]

A one-party state under Two-tier, the granny harmer.

[@bham0308]

"...to retain the trust of voters in Britain'. I think that was lost long ago! Democracy - what a joke made of smoke and mirrors!

[@malph9216]

f Labour decide to 'move the goalposts' on donations, they will open the proverbial can of worms. Once again, one of their policies would backfire big time.

[@terryjacob8169]

Vijay Rangarajan ? I see we have a native Brit heading our Electoral Commission............ One who expresses his opinions in 'The Guardian'..........!!!! You couldn't make it up, could you.

[@t850i]

Elon can give farage 100 million on his next birthday as a gift then

[@malcolmhouston7932]

How about Unions withdrawing Financial support for any Political Party? None of them are your friends - let them earn their donations like many of your members do. Many of them would not support the Labour Party if they were not "blackmailed" one way or another into donating.

[@releasedmike]

Labour would have already toke the money if it was them getting offered the money and they wouldn’t of even hesitate

[@4321ort]

Kier,i cant see how much longer you have left,you are imploding so fast

[@lets_discuss5352]

Whenever I hear the word "Quango", it reminds me of the Yes, Minister episode about "Jobs for the Boys" and brings a 😆

[@JckSwan]

'Vijay Rangarajan' is head of the British electoral commission.

[@SuperBenathon]

They are totally fine accepting Black Rock, Vanguard, Bill Gates foundation and Soros, but now they need donation reviews? They are playing dirty.

[@DanB77]

Lord Ali donated and brought things for labour so whats difference

[@dresterGTAIVplayer]

Wonder if they are allowed to over crowd a property?

[@TomOBedlam-b2h]

I don't think most Brits want wealthy foreign billionaires influencing British politics. I always thought it would be unwise for Reform to take money from Elon Musk because it could backfire on them badly. I want to tackle immigration but if Reform are going to sell us out to America I wont support that. I don't want the UK to become the 51st state of America or their insane politics to be exported over here.

[@justlooking3572]

Reform could have four teabags to their name and they'll still win the next election.

[@peoplewatcher.365]

We can not have that.

[@keithlock7191]

I can't hear many feminist voices about all this. They haven't been able to shut up for the past how long.

[@porkie8876]

Trying there best too stay in power when they know we want them ousted

[@stephenchristian-k9s]

Shouldn't have been so free with information. Starmer isn't! Learn from the most in the country.

[@rogerking2933]

Labour don't like it upum 😂

[@peterteagleteagle9958]

If we going to have a inquiry,can we have one for starmar, how he became labour leader , how the media,and foreigen. Powers got rid of corbyn, what happened in Liverpool, Harrow

[@pauld7827]

It's ok to have a millionaire pay for another millionaires glasses, suits, dresses etc. etc. It's OK for unions to give Labour lots of money in exchange for big pay rises. No, if Starmer genuinely thinks he is the messiah, then he should be scared of a tiny party like Reform....

[@aled9056]

Given Starmer is cosying up to China……………Would you have an issue if Starmer accepted a multi million pound donation from the billionaire owner of TikTok?

[@doubleooh7337]

lord ali better be first on the list.

[@richardwise1846]

All this will do is speed up musk's decision he will see it as more of a need to help britain and do it before any legal change

[@gregs7490]

Sour grapes

[@antonymarjeram576]

Next month trump will be USA president and musk will be part of he's cabinet so then the United states government can bankroll reform and I'd love to see labour stop that 😅😅😅

[@pojkmn666]

Elon & Trump want Nigel in, then things between us both will hit greatness, MAGA & MEGA. They just want to make both countries GREAT

[@mogznwaz]

If Elon is prevented from donating money (which technically speaking I would agree with as he’s a foreign national) then he can help in other ways……..

[@JamesJones-bb4bx]

What a silly statement...

[@paulchambers6537]

Nonsense

[@JackOfAllTrades-UK]

The writing is on the wall, a change in the party funding rules is coming. If Elon Musk is going to make a donation to Reform he needs to do it NOW. They will not make any rule change retrospective as that would impact on all party funds. Starmer will already be looking to rush this through...

[@jamessalkeld781]

Any changes will apply to all Parties so they could backfire spectacularly. There always seem to be loopholes around rules...

[@normawakefield8610]

Elon Musk could call it a membership fee 😅 not a donation

[@Andy-gh9wy]

its simple take it a a loan there is no law taking a loan :)

[@kiljoy3254]

Perhaps Musk should funnel money through his ‘Open Society’ branch

[@arius1]

Musk & Farage sit down at a poker table and play for cash. Musk folds every hand until the money is in Farage's hands. Job done.

[@johnray5685]

Get Musk out of Britain, let’s take back control. ❗

[@graemebuchan8142]

You're unintentionally fear mongering,why?
