Jeremy Hosking — Reform UK Donor & Major Brexit Funder

Full name: Jeremy Hosking Approx total donated (to Reform/ Brexit Party): £2-4 million Source of wealth: Wealthy investor, asset management — founder of Hosking Partners (London-based asset management firm). Long-established City financial figure. Why they donate: Hardline Eurosceptic. One of the original major funders of Brexit campaigns. Backed Nigel Farage's political projects from the Brexit Party through to Reform UK. Controversies: His funding of climate-sceptic causes has drawn attention — Hosking has funded groups questioning climate science and opposing net zero policies. His asset management background places him firmly in the City establishment, despite funding an anti-establishment party. Previously a Conservative donor before switching to Reform.
