New money scandal at Reform UK

188

There is big anger in Great Britain. It is about the party Reform UK. The party is right wing populist. Two important workers quit their jobs. The reason is a secret film. Reporters act as rich donors from the USA. The workers want money from them. This is forbidden in Great Britain. Foreign companies cannot give money to politics.

The police check the case now. The election commission looks at the accusations too. The workers James Orr and Dan Jukes are not in service anymore. Nigel Farage is the boss of the party. He says. The party breaks no laws. He calls the video a trap. But he admits. The talks look bad. He is not happy about the words of his workers.

Nigel Farage has trouble with money too. He gets a gift of 5 million pounds. This is about 5 point 9 million euro. He does not report this money as a donation. Farage says. It is a private gift. The party has a big meeting in Birmingham. Many members support Farage. But the party loses power in polls. Other parties want a fast check by the police.
