On Friday, two senior officials from the hard-right Reform UK party resigned following a hidden-camera investigation. The investigation appeared to show the officials soliciting substantial foreign funding for party-commissioned opinion polls, as well as a potential £500,000 donation from a US donor.

The resignations and subsequent foreign donations scandal directly affect party leader Nigel Farage, as accepting foreign donations for political purposes is banned under UK law. The unfolding controversy places renewed scrutiny on the party's fundraising practices and internal compliance.
