Billionaire property developer Nick Candy has pledged to give at least £1m to Reform UK, led by Nigel Farage. This comes amid accusations that the party is now catering to millionaires and billionaires. Farage denied this claim, stating that they have not sold any peerages and need financial support for campaigns. Additionally, there were rumors of Elon Musk donating $100m to the party, which he denied. In other news, Labour is facing criticism over the efficiency savings demanded in the spending review, with the Green Party condemning the cuts to essential services. The UK general election result was deemed as one of the most disproportional in the world by the Electoral Reform Society, highlighting the need for electoral reform. Keir Starmer met with the Cypriot president to strengthen the UK-Cyprus relationship, with discussions on defense, security, and trade. Overall, the political landscape in the UK is evolving, with voters increasingly turning to smaller parties, challenging the traditional two-party system.
