A Reform UK MP has asserted that details concerning Nigel Farage’s finances were "illegally" acquired, following the party leader’s assertion that a Russian hack was responsible for the disclosure of a £5 million donation he received from a billionaire.
A party source reportedly informed the Mail on Sunday that a "forensic analysis" of Mr Farage’s phone, conducted by "counter-espionage experts", suggested that "hostile state actors, almost certainly linked to Moscow, had used ‘spear phishing’ tactics to compromise his phone, email and bank accounts".
