‘They’re scared of us’: Farage responds amid fallout over donations scandal
- Nigel Farage has said he expects “many more investigations” into Reform UK over the coming months following a major donations scandal.
- The fallout led to the resignations of chief of staff Dan Jukes and policy director James Orr, while the Metropolitan Police consider complaints from Labour and the Lib Dems.
- Mr Farage denied any wrongdoing, insisting that Reform UK complies with regulations and alleging that political opponents are targeting his party because they are scared.
- Amid the controversy at the party conference in Birmingham, Treasury spokesman Robert Jenrick pledged to increase the tax-free personal allowance to £15,000 within 100 days of taking office.
- West Midlands Police have asked a Climate Resistance protester to come forward after footage showed audience members physically assaulting her during Mr Farage’s speech.
