The Spin

Right narrative

McMurdock followed proper legal procedures by seeking expert advice and voluntarily suspending himself to protect Reform UK. His business dealings were reviewed by qualified professionals who confirmed full compliance with regulations. The decision to remain independent allows him to better serve constituents without party political distractions.

Left narrative

Farage's leadership failures are exposed as he failed to properly vet candidates and took no decisive action when serious allegations emerged. McMurdock's account doesn't add up, as companies with no employees shouldn't qualify for substantial Covid loans meant for legitimate businesses with proper turnover.
