Labour has announced plans to report Reform UK to the police following allegations that the party breached political donation rules. According to Channel 4 News, Reform UK received funding from a US company to cover the costs of three polls, amounting to £32,500.

In response to the allegations, two Reform UK officials have resigned from their positions, and the party has initiated an internal investigation. This follows claims that the funding from the overseas firm could violate UK donation regulations.
