    About our Nigel Farage news

    Latest news on Nigel Farage, Reform UK leader and Clacton MP, covering his clash with Elon Musk, political career, and media controversy.

    Nigel Farage, born 3 April 1964, is one of Britain's most influential and controversial political figures. Currently serving as MP for Clacton and leader of Reform UK, Farage has significantly shaped British politics through his advocacy for Brexit and right-wing populist positions. His high-profile media presence includes roles at GB News and frequent appearances in international media.

    In a dramatic development on 5 January 2025, Elon Musk called for Farage to be replaced as Reform UK leader, stating he "doesn't have what it takes" to lead the party. The dispute emerged over Farage's opposition to Musk's support for far-right activist Tommy Robinson. This conflict came just weeks after reports that Musk was considering a £80.5m donation to Reform UK through his company X, and following their December meeting at Mar-a-Lago with Reform's treasurer Nick Candy.

    Beyond politics, Farage has become a significant cultural figure, appearing on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! where he finished third in 2023. His personal life made headlines with the public acknowledgment of his relationship with French politician Laure Ferrari. The 2023 controversy over the closure of his Coutts bank account sparked national debate about banking access and political views. His GB News role reportedly earns him nearly £1.2m annually, as disclosed in the Register of Members' Financial Interests.

    Farage's political journey began in the Conservative Party in 1978, but he left in 1992 over European integration issues. As a founding member of UKIP in 1993, he became its most prominent figure, later founding the Brexit Party (now Reform UK). His election as MP for Clacton in 2024, winning 46.2% of the vote, marked his first entry into Parliament after multiple unsuccessful attempts and decades as an MEP from 1999 until Britain's EU exit in 2020.
