Coronation Street spoilers, news, and updates tease that Griff Reynolds’ (Michael Condron) secret backer was finally revealed. Spider Nugent’s (Martin Hancock) theory that someone is providing financial support to the extremist gang leader was proven to be true.
Fans may recall that Spider reported back to his colleagues that Griff is someone who has been funding the latter’s activities. In the episode that aired on December 19, it was revealed that Maria Connor’s (Samia Longchambon) political rival, Councillor Cameron (Mark Murphy), is Griff’s financial backer.
Griff met with Councillor Cameron in secret, asking for more money to create further far-right videos. When asked what he will gain from giving him more cash, Griff said that their activities will “drag the political landscape to the right – just how you like it.” The corrupt politician gave in to Griff’s demands and hoped that their alliance would remain under wraps.
