Description:

Nigel Farage, leader of Britain's right-wing Reform ​UK party, on Thursday said a 5 million pound ($6.75 million) donation from a cryptocurrency billionaire he received before ‌entering parliament was "a reward for campaigning for Brexit".

Farage is being investigated by parliament's standards watchdog over whether he should have declared the money upon being elected in 2024, though he says it was an unconditional gift and therefore exempt from the rules.
