As the chairman of the Reform UK calls for an investigation into a FTX-linked political donation, the party\u2019s leader prepares to face voters amid his own crypto-related scandal. <\/p>\n

The chairman of the UK\u2019s Reform party has called for an investigation following reports of a $50,000 political donation linked to former FTX CEO Sam \u201cSBF\u201d Bankman-Fried.<\/p>\n

According to a Friday report from the Telegraph, Reform UK chair Lee Anderson called<\/a> for the parliamentary commissioner for standards to probe Defense Secretary Wes Streeting over reported $50,000 in donations from a think tank in 2022 and 2023. The reported donations came<\/a> from Labour for the Long Term, whose founder reportedly accepted a $675,000 gift from Bankman-Fried before sending funds to Streeting.<\/p>\n

Notably, Reform leader Nigel Farage is set to face voters next week<\/a> in a by-election triggered by his resignation as a member of parliament amid his own crypto scandal. The UK politician received $6.7 million in donations from crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne and financial assistance from George Cottrell, a convicted fraudster linked to a crypto casino. Farage claimed that the contributions were \u201cgifts.\u201d<\/p>\n
