Fairness from the BBC!
Iain Dale has also covered this - and has received some interesting replies to his "Spot the difference(s)":
Case A: Alan Bown* gave a political party £363,697Can you find more?
1) It was his money
2) He had a business trading in this country, making him eligible to donate money
3) He was not on the electoral register when he donated although he was the year before, and also the year afterwards.
Case B: Michael Brown gave a political party £2.7m
1) It was not his money, he had defrauded it
2) His business was not trading in the UK, so therefore he was ineligible to donate money
3) He was not on the electoral register; neither was he the year afterwards, nor the year before.
* As Bloggers4UKIP reported yesterday, the Court of Appeal ruled in favour of the corrupt Electoral Commission and ordered Westminster Magistrates Court to change its ruling that UKIP only has to forfeit £18,481 of the £363,697 in impermissible donations received from Alan Bown.
Please will all UKIPers kindly consider making a donation to UKIP to help it pay back this money and ultimately, assist UKIP gain seats in Parliament to help get us out of the EU!

Farage has made £2m simply by being er...an MEP
He can pay.
OH - that is not fair. I read your blog every day but although sometimes disagreeing with what you say, I do not pass disparaging - and slightly untrue - comments on its content.
Fausty: they are determined to negate Ukip, one way or another!
OH, he uses the huge amounts of dosh he gets (which each MEP gets, regardless of circumstance) towards fighting the EU.
A just cause?
I don't care what percentage of his earnings he pockets to enrich his life, so long as he is truly fighting for Britain - unlike our thousands of policitos a gross majority of whom prostitute themselves merely for grace, favour and their own personal enrichment.
If he wins for us, he deserves it!
