NIGEL Farage has found himself at the heart of another dodgy donations scandal following an undercover sting operation.

An undercover Channel 4 report appears to show two senior Reform figures arranging for a US firm to fund three polls earlier this year, costing £32,500.

James Orr, head of policy, and Dan Jukes, a senior aide to Mr Farage, have both stepped back amid an internal investigation.

Mr Farage has insisted: “The party has done nothing wrong, taken no illegal money. In fact no money was taken at all.”

Speaking at his party conference this weekend, he dismissed the allegations as “a little local difficulty” and described the reports as “an exercise in entrapment”.

He added the row was built on nothing but “loose pub talk” – but it follows other probes including questions over a £5million gift which led to his resignation and re-election as an MP.
