Holly Valance reveals she convinced Nigel Farage to run in the election and had been 'whispering in his ear for a long time'


The Neighbours star, 41, said she talked the new Reform leader around after he initially decided against running.

Mr Farage stunned the Conservatives on Monday as he announced he was taking over from former leader Richard Tice as the head of the party, and that he would be standing for election for a ninth time. The Reform Party leader, citing alleged interactions with 'patriotic Brits' he met while campaigning last weekend, claimed that voters feel 'sick' at the Government's 'policy of betrayal'. Olympia, 31, appeared on HIT WA's Allan & Carly radio show to clarify she isn't a follower of Holly's right-wing views, and said her sister 'rarely' returns to Australia.
