Summary

Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform UK party, faces fresh allegations that he failed to declare benefits provided by an ally, George Cottrell, who was previously convicted of fraud in the US. According to The Sunday Times, Cottrell supplied security and social media staff who worked on Farage's online content before his election, and Farage also used a property rented by Cottrell near Buckingham Palace. Farage's spokesman has denied any rules were broken. This comes as Farage is already under a parliamentary probe over an undeclared £5m gift from a billionaire Reform UK donor.
