MEGA rich donors flocked to Mayfair last night to line the Reform Party coffers with more than £1MILLION. Nigel Farage added the seven-figure sum to his campaign war-chest as wealthy backers paid up to £25,000-a-head for the swanky bash at Oswald’s private members club.

Guests ranged from celebs like heavyweight boxer Derek Chisora and SAS hardman Ant Middleton, to the racehorse trainer Andrew Reid and businessman Myles Barclay. The party’s new treasurer Nick Candy - tasked with pulling in the rich supporters - was present with his actress wife Holly Valance.

He gave a speech to the 100 attendees, along with party chairman Zia Yusuf and then the keynote address by Mr Farage. They quaffed champagne, tucked into what one guest said was “the best roast beef I’ve had in my life” before Mr Farage led the room in a chorus of God Save The King.

Forms were left on tables for donors to pledge more money the the party. The mega fundraiser will send chills down the spines of Tory bosses who emptied their coffers fighting the summer election and are scrambling to draw in cash. Some polls have put Reform ahead of the Conservatives and nipping at the heels of Labour.

Other guests last night included Charles James Spencer-Churchill, the 12th Duke of Marlborough. Reform backers George Cottrell and Aaron Banks were also among the suited-and-booted, along with socialite Lady Victoria Hervey. Party MPs Richard Tice, Lee Anderson and James McMurdock were also at the sought-after event, alongside Tory turncoat Dame Andrea Jenkyns.
