[6] In March 2013, Binev attended the UK Independence Party's spring conference in the Devonshire city of Exeter, United Kingdom.
Mr Binev also spoke of the dangers of socialism and dictatorship, whilst explaining the extent of corruption that exists in Bulgaria and emphasising the importance of democracy.
[11] In what was regarded by many as a surprising move due to his previous membership in parties subscribing to Bulgarian nationalism, in 2017 he switched to the MRF.
The title had previously been unused in the country, but has been bestowed recently on controversial businessmen that make 'donations which do not contravene Christian morals and good manners'.
[13] Binev is married to Maria, with whom he has five children: Martina, Miroslava, Kaloyan, Elena (a member of the Bulgarian national team in rhythmic gymnastics)[14] and Viktoria.
