Nigel Farage is facing further allegations he broke parliamentary spending rules following reports he failed to declared benefits from a crypto-gambler.
A report by The Sunday Times claimed Farage was supplied with security, social media staff and a place to stay in London the year before he was elected by George Cottrell, who was convicted of fraud in the US in 2017.
Cottrell is a crypto-gambling entrepreneur involved in an offshore bookmaker, Tether.bet and is a longstanding ally of Farage.
Under parliamentary rules, new MPs must declare financial interests and benefits received in the 12 months before their election. Farage is also facing a probe over a £5m gift from a billionaire Reform donor which he had not registered, arguing it was for his personal security.
A spokesman for Farage said: “It comes as no surprise that the Sunday Times has chosen to publish this baseless and contrived story, covering a period of time when Nigel Farage was not even an active politician let alone an elected one, given that the newspaper backed the Labour Party at the last general election. Contrary to the story’s tone, no parliamentary rules have been broken.”
