Watchdog urged to investigate Farage over alleged Bank of England lobbying on behalf of donor
Summary
The Guardian reports that the UK parliamentary standards watchdog has been urged to investigate whether Reform UK leader Nigel Farage lobbied the Bank of England to drop a cryptocurrency plan that could negatively impact Christopher Harborne, the billionaire who donated £15m to his party and an undeclared £5m gift to Farage. Farage used a private meeting with Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey to push for dropping the plan, raising questions about potential breaches of parliamentary rules.
