Farage resigns from the House of Representatives due to an investigation into his finances.

Nigel Farage has resigned as the MP for Clacton amid ongoing investigations into his financial dealings. The investigations involve allegations that he failed to declare benefits received from convicted criminal George Cottrell prior to his 2024 election victory, as well as a £5 million donation from cryptocurrency billionaire Christopher Harborne before his election. Despite these allegations, Farage maintains that he did nothing wrong and has stated he will run again in early elections, which he frames as 'the people against the establishment.' Former Prime Minister Keir Starmer criticized Farage’s resignation as a 'desperate maneuver,' while Andy Burnham’s spokesperson called the move a 'ploy' to divert attention from the financial inquiries.
