A source said:aidd: “Farage knowsws he is very unpopular inn Scotland.

“But theree are people withinin the business community who are interested in what he has to say.

“He was a driving force behind Brexit and has a good relationsh­ip with Trump. There will be people in ScotlandSc­o who wantantt tto ask him direcdirec­tct questions aboutaboou thei r hhopop e s a nd feafea rrs a f ter Br ita in’s decisionde­ec to l e aave the EU and Scotland’sSSc role inin Brexit.” MacDonald isi also the boss of BaBabyy Dolls llaplapdan­cing barinEdinb­urghandCba­rinEdinbur­ghandClub Earth in Livingston. Ci v i l Re cov e r y Un i t prosecutor­s tried to claim the businessma­n was involved in human traffickin­g, gun running, pornograph­y and drugs.

But judge Lord Carloway ruled there was no evidence of MacDonald being linked to organised crime.

The lawman said there was evidence that he acquired the mortgage by fraud and allowed the Crown Office to freeze his assets until the outcome of the investigat­ion.

The case has been held up after MacDonald switched legal teams last year.

He said: “Negotiatio­ns are at a very early stage.”

Farage was unavailabl­e for comment.
