Fury as Boris Johnson receives eye-watering sum from Brexiter

Former PM Boris Johnson has been handed a huge amount of cash from a businessman who also funnelled millions of money to Nigel Farage’s Brexit party.

Thai-based Brit Christopher Harborne, gave the Brexit party £6m before the 2019 general election.

However, he has handed a £1m donation to Boris Johnson’s personal office after he left the top job.

Comeback

The donation will increase speculation that he might be planning a comeback.

Also, Mr Johnson’s 7,210 majority in his west London constituency means he is vulnerable to being unseated by Labour.

The Office of Boris Johnson Ltd was established in October last year. The Companies House entry lists the purpose of the company only as “other business support service activities”.

Many former senior politician’s have set up similar types of vehicles, as they attempt to join the lucrative after dinner speaking circuit and other commercial ventures.

Reactions

I wonder what Johnson is plotting to do next, that this guy is willing to 'invest' £1m on him.

£1M is 5x what the Green Party had for GE2019 pic.twitter.com/qXTByLIqCd

Trump harmed America, but 'Britain Trump', Boris Johnson, causes continual harm to us with the ongoing haemorrhage of his hard Brexit.

Genuinely wondering why someone would 'donate' that kind of money to Johnson. Investment in his comeback? https://t.co/GwG7FcbeOC

The deluded, lying, narcissistic psychopath received a single donation of £1m and yet the tax payer has paid £220,000 for his legal support to date. #ToriesOut190 🤬

Boris Johnson received most donations of this parliament after single contribution of £1m https://t.co/NqgHt2RZ8E

Remember when Johnson claimed he was the people’s PM — a champion of the working people fighting the elites?

It was just a grift — he was always in it for the cash and the power.
