'Hypocrite' Nigel Farage didn't pay £44k stamp duty then blasted Angela Rayner Last year Nigel Farage announced he had bought a house in Clacton, Essex, but in fact it was his partner Laure Ferrari, 46, who shelled out almost £900,000 for the property

“Farage has given two contradictory versions – one that he bought it and the other that his girlfriend owns it. If the second one is correct then he has ­engineered a massive saving on stamp duty, larger than the one that forced Angela Rayner to resign.” – @goodlawproject.org
