Farage Claims Phone Was Hacked by Moscow Who Leaked £5m Gift Details
- On Sunday, Reform leader Nigel Farage claimed hostile state actors linked to Moscow used 'spear phishing' to leak details of a £5 million donation from billionaire Christopher Harborne.
- Farage faces scrutiny over a £1.4 million cash house purchase in 2024, as Financial Times analysis showed company accounts were 'not consistent' with his claim that television fees funded the property.
- Westminster's standards watchdog is investigating whether Farage broke Commons rules by failing to declare the donation after his 2024 election, while critics argue his changing explanations demonstrate a lack of transparency.
- Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey suggested Farage's 'silence' implies guilt, warning he 'might get thrown out' of Parliament if the investigation confirms rule breaches.
- On Monday, Reform MP Danny Kruger maintained that information regarding Farage's finances was obtained through illegal means, calling for an investigation into the leak of the private gift made before Farage entered Parliament.
