Two of Nigel Farage\u2019s family members have had their bank accounts frozen because of their association with the Reform UK leader, a friend has claimed.<\/p>\n

The Reform leader is said to be \u201cseething\u201d about the impact his political career is having on his family. <\/p>\n

Just weeks ago, Mr Farage said he had \u201cnever been angrier\u201d after a Sky News reporter visited a property where his daughter lives while he was abroad.<\/p>\n

Mr Farage labelled the approach as \u201cintimidating” and Ofcom has opened an investigation following a complaint from Reform UK. <\/p>\n

\u201cYou tell your bosses, you harass my family any more and there will be serious consequences,\u201d he said at the time.<\/p>\n

Now a friend has told The Sunday Express that two of the MP’s family members have had their bank accounts frozen due to their association with the politician.<\/p>\n

GB News has contacted Reform UK to verify these claims.<\/p>\n

Mr Farage is also facing a parliamentary standards investigation over the donations, as well as a \u00a35million gift he accepted from cryptocurrency billionaire Christopher Harborne before the 2024 general election.<\/p>\n

Ofcom confirmed that it had accepted a complaint concerning a report broadcast by Sky News and was investigating it earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Sky News said it was attempting to contact the Reform leader about donations he had received from George Cottrell, one of his close associates who has been convicted of fraud in the US.<\/p>\n

In Reform\u2019s complaint, they claimed that the report failed to include important context, including his assertion that his daughter had felt \u201charassed and unsafe\u201d following media attendance at her home.<\/p>\n

The revelation from Mr Farage\u2019s friend comes just a day after the Reform UK National Conference concluded in Birmingham. <\/p>\n

Protestors delayed Nigel Farage’s speech just days ago<\/p>\n

Mr Farage\u2019s keynote speech at the event was disrupted by protestors. <\/p>\n

Four protesters who had smuggled themselves into the main hall at the NEC in Birmingham were forcibly removed after counter-terror police were accused of blocking Mr Farage’s address by more than an hour.<\/p>\n

Speaking from the stage a few minutes later, Mr Farage added: “I’m sorry we were delayed. It was a security alert. I was told, for security reasons, I couldn’t take to the stage.”<\/p>\n

Mr Farage’s speech was delayed until 5.20pm after campaigners unveiled a banner depicting Mr Farage as Mr Monopoly.<\/p>\n

The banner, which was in reference to a gift handed to Mr Farage by the cryptocurrency billionaire Christopher Harborne, added: “Collect \u00a35million, burn the planet.”<\/p>\n

A sniffer dog was brought into the main hall to carry out a security search before Mr Farage’s speech.<\/p>\n

After one interruption, Mr Farage joked: \u201cThese are the benefits of a university education, folks.”<\/p>\n

He later asked another protester: \u201cTell us, love, is it sociology, is it? Yeah, I bet it is.”<\/p>\n

The Reform UK leader echoed his previous response to protesters by leading members in chanting: “Boring, boring, boring.”<\/p>\n

In a fourth exchange, Mr Farage said: \u201cThat poor young girl, she looked like she was going to do herself an injury, didn’t she?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two of Nigel Farage\u2019s family members have had their bank accounts frozen because of their association with the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":118736,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[14,408,5,20,6],"class_list":["post-118735","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-uk","tag-politics","tag-reform-uk","tag-uk","tag-uk-politics","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@UnitedKingdom\/117224810974500834","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118735"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118735\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/118736"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118735"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
