This is incorrect. Farage’s GB News salary for example is paid to a company that then pays him a dividend. The company pays capital gains tax, which is a lot lower than the higher rate of income tax. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/aug/16/nigel-farage-revealed-to-be-uks-highest-earning-mp https://x.com/nw_nicholas/status/1824725932038324677?s=46&t=hhkQNF78n_hqM3VhNikZrA https://x.com/edwinhayward/status/1824560066848006574?s=46&t=hhkQNF78n_hqM3VhNikZrA https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2595247/amp/Revealed-How-Farage-used-firm-Thorn-In-The-Side-Ltd-halve-tax-bill-45-000-extra-earnings.html

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1824744838459175335

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
