Nigel Farage stands firm by his close friend George Cottrell, a man with a U.S. fraud conviction, amid mounting scrutiny over alleged $2 million donations from Cottrell to his mother—just before she donated to Farage’s Reform party. Though Cottrell, who funds Farage’s security and lives in Montenegro, holds no official party role, police are investigating whether donations were disguised to skirt electoral rules. Labour has called for an Electoral Commission probe, while Reform insists it complied with all laws. Farage, recovering from recent abdominal surgery, also faces a parliamentary standards inquiry over an undeclared $5 million gift—and is using a Clacton by-election, with no major parties running, as a test of his integrity.
