Reading some of these fantasy theories are quite funny and in another way idiotic.
Farage will not be making any money from the Brexit party as all the money is sent to an independent treasurer (and monitored by the The Electoral Commission). In fact the party was told to make sure they get the billing address to match card payments so no dodgy conspirecy theorists (on here) can claim the money is Russian or it goes to Nige. Utter fantasy if people think different.
As for standing down candidates? It was the obvious answer. Farage put himself in a corner when he threatened Boris to scrap his deal. Was never going to happen. The U-turn by Farage hurt him. you could tell from his latest conference. He knows that unless Boris wins, it will be the end of Brexit. Labour has proved they cannot be trusted and would sell out for power (like the limps). The Limps would revoke. So standing candidates in Tory seats would cost Brexit by splitting the vote. This way Boris will win, Brexit will happen and Farage hopes he gets enough seats that he can dictate the future process. It may upset a few Leavers but you have to ask them a question, do they want Brexit or not? Polls show another 2 point gain by the Tories after he took out those candidates.
It's as simple as that... no hidden banks accounts or betting on the pound (that's gone out the window anyway, as its change recently). No Russian involvement... just a tactical move.
And before I get a response from the 'usual suspects' over a losers vote? I agree with what Nigel said in that it would never be fair. They would rig it and split the leave vote. This is the best thing for Farage to do.

So you 2 have proved a point. I reply with an answer and you do exactly what you claim i do.
It proves to me and others that you are just WUM’s. Both of you are not worth debating with.

I have decided to take the advice of a well known member on this board who text me to say that i shouldnt waste my time on this thread as “there are posters that are just winding me up”. I will do as he says and “join him on the football threads”.
However i will be back on 12th/13th, As you all seem to be experts on the election. I want to see how correct you are.

It proves to me and others that you are just WUM’s but I'm the king of WUM's .Both of you are not worth debating with as I can never answer any of the questions, no matter how simple, that are posed to me!

I have decided to take the advice of a well known member on this board who text me to say that i shouldnt waste my time on this thread as “there are posters that are much more intelligent than me and I find it difficult to debate”. I will do as he says and “join him on the football threads”.
However i will be back on 12th/13th, As you all seem to be experts on the election, you know I'm the only expert on here and I prove it daily with my memes. I want to see how correct you are even though not one single person on here has said that the tories wont win.

Very honest Eeliov. Well said mate
 
Meanwhile, back in the land of Project Facts:

"However, speaking exclusively to Auto Express after making the announcement, Musk blamed Brexit uncertainty on why the UK wasn’t considered for the new site: “Brexit [uncertainty] made it too risky to put a Gigafactory in the UK,” Musk said.

Brexit might have something to do with Musk’s change of heart over the R&D centre, too. Back in 2014, he told Auto Express that he planned to build an R&D base in the UK. Those plans have since been shelved."

Chalk this one up as another example of a significant business decision the fanatics will maintain has nothing to do with Brexit.

Which presumably explains why the UK is in recession and Germany isn't...

Wait a minute, the UK isn't in recession is it? And Germany....is

Shiiittttt!!!!
