Nigel Farage earns £2m external income as MP, faces scrutiny over undeclared £5m donor gift

Analysis by investigative site DeSmog shows Reform UK leader and Clacton MP Nigel Farage has accumulated over £2 million in external income on top of his parliamentary salary since his July 2024 election. Farage is facing cross-party criticism, an Electoral Commission investigation, and widespread public concern over his failure to declare a £5 million personal gift from Reform UK mega-donor Christopher Harborne received before the 2024 general election, which he asserts was non-political and intended to cover security costs.
