Master baker tier. Every paragraph earns its place on the tray.
Summary
Labour chair Anna Turley has given Nigel Farage a 24-hour ultimatum to report his alleged phone hacking by Russia-linked actors to UK security services, or Labour will do it themselves. The demand comes after Farage claimed in a Sunday newspaper that his phone was hacked by a 'foreign state' actor. A Reform UK spokesperson stated the incident was reported to 'relevant authorities' without specifying which ones. Scepticism surrounds Farage's claim, and Turley insists a proper investigation is in the public and national interest.
