Would Elon Musk's donation to Reform be ‘dirty money’? | LBC debate

As rumours re-circulate about Elon Musk making a hefty donation to the Reform Party, Iain Dale and his panel deliberate the ethics of this.

It comes as Nigel Farage and Nick Candy meet with Elon Musk at Donald Trump’s Mar-A-Lago mansion following reports the tech billionaire is preparing to donate $100m to Reform UK.

Reform unveiled billionaire property developer Candy as its treasurer last week as the latest in a series of announcements by Farage's party with the next general election in mind.

The three men met at the Florida club on Monday amid rumours of Musk’s planned donation, which would be by far the largest donation in British electoral history.

When questioned by ITV, Musk denied he was planning to donate $100 million, but did not rule out another amount.

Meanwhile, Farage said the rumoured donation was "pure speculation", that the idea was "complete news to me" and "I’ve heard nothing of the kind".
