The Nathan Gill Affair
Farage’s Close Ally and the Kremlin-Backed Forum on How to Subvert Western Democracy

Ahead of the sentencing on 21 November of former Reform UK Leader in Wales Nathan Gill, who accepted bribes from an alleged Russian agent, Peter Jukes reveals how the ex-MEP was due to give a talk on cryptocurrencies at a convention in Moscow when he was arrested

When police stopped Nathan Gill at Manchester Airport on 13 September 2021, they did so under Schedule 3 of the Counter-Terrorism and Border Security Act 2019 – a power designed to detect hostile state activity and foreign interference at UK borders.

Byline Times and The Nerve can now reveal that, when Gill was arrested, the former MEP had been invited to spend four days in Moscow at a major gathering of ‘political technologists’ from across the world, under the auspices of the Kremlin.

According to the Crown Prosecution Service’s indictment and Gill’s own guilty pleas, he accepted bribes from December 2018 to July 2019 from Oleh Voloshyn – a pro-Russian Ukrainian MP with longstanding ties to Viktor Medvedchuk, Vladimir Putin’s closest political ally in Ukraine.
