Nigel Farage's Reform UK has 'major weapon' against rivals in General Election race
Reform UK's General Election candidates have raised tens of thousands of pounds on GoFundMe.
Reform UK candidates are raking in GoFundMe donations ahead of the General Election.
Candidates for Nigel Farage's party have raised more than £55,000 through the platform.
The Greens have more campaigns than the Tories and the Lib Dems combined, Playbook reported, while Labour's Stella Creasy is the individual candidate who has raised the most with £10,000.
A GoFundMe spokesman said: "It's easier now than ever to raise money for causes you care about, which is why so many candidates from across the political spectrum are turning to our platform for their fundraising."
A fundraising industry insider added: "We are rapidly moving into an era where crowdfunding is a major weapon in every good campaigner's arsenal."
Don't miss... Farage sets out his bombshell plan if Labour wins General Election [LATEST]
It comes as Reform is building momentum following Mr Farage's bombshell comeback.
The Brexit architect has returned to lead the rebranded Brexit Party and will also stand in Clacton.
Mr Farage today said he wants to lead a "national opposition" to Labour if Sir Keir Starmer's party wins the General Election.
The 60-year-old, who hopes to engineer a reverse takeover of the Conservative Party to form a new centre-right grouping, said he believed the situation was already "close to a tipping point" and that the Tories "may well be dead, this may well be the end of their journey".
He said he believed "something new is going to emerge on the centre-right" of politics.
Mr Farage told LBC: "Do I think I'm capable of leading a national opposition to a Labour Party with a big majority, where I can stand up and hold them to account on issues? Yes.
"I would be prepared to lead the centre-right in this country, a centre-right that stands up for small business, a centre-right that believes in borders, a centre-right that isn't scared of standing up for the British people."
Tory campaigning appears to have shifted to warn would-be Reform voters that Labour could end up with a landslide win, urging them to back the Conservatives instead in order to provide a large opposition force - although Rishi Sunak has insisted he has not given up on victory.
