Well, in the article he claims that he is going to raise 75 mio. pounds via online fundraising. However I have a distinct idea how it might be possible to raise large amounts of money.

Essentially he is running a party which has no program beyond formulating popular disillusionment with the European Project. That means nobody will really care what his party will really do once they are in the parliament.  Clearly this gives him the possibility to give all kinds of promises to larges scale donors. It might come down to a classic "Nationalism for Rubes, Neoliberalism for Business" strategy.
