Farage and Candy to host £25,000-a-head Reform fundraiser

The Reform UK leader Nigel Farage will host a £25,000-a-head fundraiser later this month, weeks after his new treasurer - the property billionaire Nick Candy - pledged to secure more money for the party than any other in British political history. Sky News has seen an invitation to a central London venue on 28 January at which Mr Farage intends to unveil new details of his "vision for the country".
Reform hopes the evening will raise a substantial seven-figure sum, with general seats available for £10,000 apiece and VIP tickets on offer for £25,000-a-head. The event is understood to be the first of a number being planned by Nick Candy, Reform's new chief fundraiser, with some future fundraisers expected to be held outside the UK.
While overseas citizens are prohibited from donating directly to UK political parties, they are able to do so through British-based companies they own. "As Britain faces unprecedented challenges, Reform UK is paving the way for bold, transformative change," the invitation said.
"Join us as Nigel Farage presents his vision for the country, and help play a pivotal role in shaping Britain's future.". Reform within touching distance of Labour as poll suggests 'new era' for British politics. Nigel Farage hits back at 'rogue branch' after 10 Reform councillors quit in protest over 'autocratic' leadership.
Why the government's devolution overhaul matters. It will come weeks after it emerged that Elon Musk was in talks to make a substantial donation to Reform. That prospect was subsequently clouded by Mr Musk's post on X, the social media platform he owns, that Mr Farage should be replaced as the party leader amid a dispute over whether Tommy Robinson should be admitted to its ranks.
