A former Conservative supporter in the UK called Arron Banks has donated £1m to Ukip after William Hague called him a “nobody”, while a Tory veteran's son has said he will join the party.

Millionaire businessman Arron Banks had originally decided to donate £100,000 to Nigel Farage’s party but following Mr Hague’s intervention he has increased it to £1 million.
