Sky News report – 27 June 2024:

‘A Conservative donor who gave more than £500,000 to the party has defected to Reform UK.

Sir John Hall, former Newcastle United owner, joined Reform UK leader Nigel Farage at an election rally in Durham on Thursday to announce his support for the party.

Mr Farage said the miner’s son, who helped fund Theresa May’s 2017 election bid, had given Reform UK a donation, but did not confirm how much.

He thanked Sir John “for coming out so publicly for us” and said the property developer was a “major success story, a role model”.’
