Important thread from @RealBristolNews

Add that to the threads by @Turloughc that suggest that the Brexit Party has been in the planning for nearly 3 years.

(See next tweet for link)
3/ Here is Farage claiming he has £1m pledged by donors. NB date 1/2/2019, just 4 days before the party formally registered with the EC (5/2/2019).

However a search of the Electoral Commission accounting period to 31/3/19 (30/4/19 = file date)says that NO donor declaration made
4/. Despite suggesting to Sophie Ridge on 7/5/2019 that their donations were made up of £2 million in £25 donations with only a single donor of £100k to be declared at the end of July we now know this is untrue.

5/. We know it is untrue because Hoskins says that “over the last few weeks” (story dated 12/5/2019 @zelo_street ) he had donated £200k to the Brexit Party.

Exactly how much and in which weeks? Any up to 31/3/2019?

6/. Indeed according to this story in the Guardian Hoskins ALSO said he knew of at least 4 other donors who had pledged or donated similar amounts.

So which was it? And when? In what sums?

7/. Because this is the @ElectoralCommUK Commission guidance.
