A crowdfunding campaign to buy a new hovercraft for the RNLI nicknamed ‘The Flying Farage’ is approaching its £200,000 target.

Simon Harris started the campaign, saying he believed it to be “incredibly appropriate” to buy such a vessel given that the former UKIPer was taking “such an active interest in the RNLI’s activities right now”.

He added that, if successful, he might even buy a second vessel and call it ‘The Galloping Grimes’ or ‘The Hovering Hopkins’.

At the time of writing donations had surged to £193,000 and showed no sign of slowing down.

Otto English posted on Twitter: “Best way to send a message to Nigel Farage this Christmas is to get this RNLI boat over the line. Just £8k will do it.”
