• UK politics live – latest updates

Reform UK is raising millions more than the other political parties from private donations, bringing in £9m largely from cryptocurrency billionaires in the first three months of the year.

Nigel Farage’s party took a £3m donation from the cryptocurrency and aviation investor, Christopher Harborne, who is a British-Thai dual citizen, and £4m from the cryptocurrency entrepreneur Ben Delo, who is relocating to the UK from Hong Kong.

Prime minister says ‘£5m question still remains’, as pressure grows on Reform UK leader over Christopher Harborne gift

Keir Starmer has pressed Nigel Farage to stop “dodging questions” about the £5m personal gift he received from the Thailand-based crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne.

The gift, first revealed by the Guardian, was given to Farage in the months before he stood as an MP in the 2024 general election. It is now under investigation by the parliamentary standards commissioner.
