By

Summary
MPs are calling for an expanded investigation into Nigel Farage over undeclared donations. Farage is already under scrutiny for not declaring a £5m gift from a bitcoin billionaire. New allegations from the Sunday Times claim he also failed to disclose financial support from George Cottrell, a convicted fraudster involved in cryptocurrency. Farage denies wrongdoing, and Reform UK argues the donation was given in a "personal capacity" and did not need to be declared. Cottrell disputes the allegations.
