You’ve got to to question the intelligence/motives of someone who lends Andrew “Mr Potato Brian” Bridgen 4.5m for what was basically an inter-family dispute

That's an important piece of journalism. I hope it's picked up.

Likes to splash the cash on his Brexit obsession. Perhaps buying a fringe right wing party is latest football club type accessory for the super rich.
A long time Conservative Party donor, Hosking donated £1.7 million to Vote Leave in 2016 and supported pro-Brexit candidates in the 2017 general election.[19]

In February 2019, Hosking submitted the paperwork to found a new party called Brexit Express, which would welcome Conservative Party MPs unhappy with Theresa May's Brexit plans. At the same time, he launched a public campaign in favour of a no-deal Brexit.[20] Hosking has made major donations to the Brexit Party led by Nigel Farage.[21][22] He became the founding donor to the Reclaim Party led by Laurence Fox.[23][24] In the first quarter of 2021, he gave the Reclaim Party more than £1,000,000 in cash and services.[23] In December 2021, newspapers reported he would continue to fund the Reclaim Party.[25] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Hosking

Aye. We really have to clear people like Bridgen out of parliament.

Also featuring Gina Carano, who was looking to star in her own Star Wars series on Disney Plus right up until she decided being an antivax MAGA bigot was a more lucrative career move.

Is she the lady who then made a film with Ben Shapiro, which attracted 700 people to cinemas.

The Reclaim "Party" isn't a political party in the conventionally understood sense. It has no membership, and is basically run (or headed ) by Fox, in a somewhat autocratic manner, as a private company, with some help from a wealthy financial backer whose name escapes me for now. Fox fighting with Bridgen about a car and snaffling a laptop for himself seems to be consistent with that

As Malc says, the man's a cunt.

Jeremy Hosking. A hedge funder, unsurprisingly.

Now I can reveal that the controversial MP has split from his wife of seven years, the glamorous Serbian opera singer Nevena Bridgen.
