Billionaire appears on Andrew Marr Show
The man at the centre of a major UK National Crime Agency investigation, over millions of pounds of funding given to pro-Brexit groups during the EU referendum, says the money came from him, and not from any of his Manx companies.
Arron Banks, who has been described as 'Nigel Farage's wallet', appeared on the Andrew Marr show this morning (Sun 4) to try and put an end to what he calls 'ludicrous allegations' which he's blamed on 'intense pressure from anti-Brexit supporters'.
It's alleged the 'true source' of an £8 million donation to the Leave.EU campaign was concealed - the biggest single donation in British political history - and some of it may have come from Mr Banks' company, Rock Holdings, incorporated in the Isle of Man.
But Mr Banks says that's absolutely not the case:
