Today in Focus · The secretive billionaire bankrolling Nigel Farage · 28 Apr 2026 podcast

And overall, how much has he given to Farage's various political parties?

Okay, £22 million.

And let's go back a bit.

Where is he from and what was his upbringing like?

And so he goes there in the 90s.

And what has drawn him to Thailand?

Okay, so he's made a lot of money in finance.

And then after the Asian financial crash in 1997, he gets really rich.

And then he turns his attention back to his home country and starts donating to the Tory party.

Is that right?

And why did he adopt a Thai name?

And is he a political guy?

Is he the kind of person who turns up at a Tory party conference?

Who likes to go to these big dinners in the city?

Is that his vibe?

So you say that he made a lot of money out of the Asian financial crisis.

How do you go from that sort of mid-level wealth to stratospheric levels of wealth?

Okay.

OK, and then what does he do next?
