Revealed: a crypto billionaire's political base hosting anti-woke' and rightwing activists in Westminster
"Ben Delo, 42, who was pardoned by Donald Trump last year, has given support in kind to Rupert Lowe, the anti-migration MP challenging Nigel Farage from the right while also connecting with mainstream figures including the Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and former cabinet minister Michael Gove. Delo, an Oxford graduate who moved to Hong Kong in 2012 and appears to still be based there, says he is a champion of free speech and has vowed to tackle the nuisance of political correctness."
"Delo, who says he has poured more than 100m into philanthropy, is providing funding, networking opportunities and help in kind via a suite of rooms in a building overlooking Westminster Abbey, known as the Sanctuary. Those given access can use the facility free of charge for events, office space and podcasting."
"Restore Britain, the party founded by Lowe, a former Reform UK MP who now sits as an independent, launched its campaign for the mass deportation of millions of migrants from a room at the Sanctuary last year. The Triggernometry podcast, which describes itself as a free speech and open inquiry platform, has used the facilities to broadcast to its 1.7 million subscribers."
Ben Delo, a 42-year-old Oxford graduate pardoned by Donald Trump, has invested over £100 million in philanthropy while funding a Westminster facility called the Sanctuary. Operating from a building overlooking Westminster Abbey, Delo provides free access to office space, event venues, and podcasting facilities for various political and activist groups. His support extends to more than 50 organizations across the political spectrum, including those advocating hardline positions on immigration, nationalism, and abortion. Notable beneficiaries include Restore Britain, founded by anti-migration MP Rupert Lowe, and the Triggernometry podcast with 1.7 million subscribers. Delo, based in Hong Kong, positions himself as a free speech champion opposing political correctness while connecting with mainstream Conservative figures including party leader Kemi Badenoch.
