Odaily Planet Daily News The British Prime Minister has accused Reform UK leader Nigel Farage of avoiding questions regarding a £5 million personal gift from Thai crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne, and questioned why the donation was kept confidential.
The gift was made several months before Nigel Farage contested the 2024 general election, and is currently under investigation by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards to determine whether it should have been declared. In response, Nigel Farage stated that as he was not a Member of Parliament at the time, there was no obligation to report it to the authorities. Separately, another crypto entrepreneur, Ben Delo, has also donated £4 million to the party. (The Guardian)
