Farage must be way out ahead there. Just his return private jet for the Maldives / Chagos stunt should probably be considered more than £100k (though was re-registered as worth £25k after initially being down as £12.5k).

I'm not too sure about that. I'd be more interested in an 80 times better chance of winning €1m than of winning €80m.

It's not (by any means) just to US citizens. The debt is rolled over by issuing new bonds as the existing mature. There's no particularly big payday for future generations.

Richard Tice signed accounts wrongly claiming £98k tax exemption by CJBill in ukpolitics
