Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has met with Nick Candy and Elon Musk at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago mansion to discuss “saving the West”.

Nigel Farage and Nick Candy said: “We had a great meeting with Elon Musk for an hour yesterday. We learned a great deal about the Trump ground game and will have ongoing discussions on other areas.

“We only have one more chance left to save the West, and we can do great things together.

“Our thanks also to President Trump for allowing us to use Mar-A-Lago for this historic meeting. The special relationship is alive and well.”

Billionaire property tycoon Nick Candy has pledged to donate a “seven-figure” sum to Reform UK after resigning his Conservative Party membership to become Nigel Farage’s new treasurer.

Previously, X owner Elon Musk expressed an interest in his appointment, prompting questions about whether the tech entrepreneur would be making a donation after reports he was prepared to give tens of millions to the party.

When he defected from the Tories last week, Mr Candy said: “I have today resigned my membership of the Conservative Party after many years of active support and substantial donations to the party.

“I am sorry to say there have been too many broken promises and a complete breach of trust with the wealth creators in our country.

“Nigel Farage is a close personal friend of mine, and Reform UK represents the future of British politics.

“I am pleased to announce that I will now become the treasurer for Reform UK and intend to raise enough funds for them to win the next general election. I will take up the role in the new year.”

At the time, Nigel Farage said: “I warmly welcome this decision. We are the fastest-growing movement in British politics today and Nick’s efforts will help Reform UK transform our country.”
