Farage urged to come clean' over alleged election spending breaches in Clacton

"The latest to speak publicly is Yinka Bankole, who claims to claims that a teenage Farage told him that's the way back to Africa, and said he had felt compelled to speak out after the Reform leader's attempt at denying or dismissing the hurt of his alleged targets."

"According to the Daily Telegraph, Everett has claimed Reform failed to declare spending on leaflets, banners, utility bills and the refurbishment of a bar in its Clacton campaign office. He alleges the party's official returns report that it came just 400 under the spending limit set by electoral law, and the undeclared spending would have put it above the cap. But he also said he thought Farage himself had been blissfully unaware."

Nigel Farage has been urged to come clean over his Clacton election campaign after a former aide alleged Reform UK breached spending rules. Richard Everett submitted documents to Scotland Yard claiming the party spent more than the £20,660 limit in the Essex constituency and failed to declare expenses for leaflets, banners, utility bills and a campaign-office bar refurbishment. Everett says official returns reported the campaign just £400 under the legal cap and that undeclared costs would have pushed spending over the limit. Reform denies breaking the law and calls Everett a disgruntled, expelled councillor; opponents demand answers. Additional pressure arises from racism allegations by former peers.
