Nigel Farage has spent more than £110,000 on VIP travel since becoming an MP, according to analysis of his financial disclosures. The Reform UK leader has used helicopters and a fleet of black vehicles with darkened windows, funded by his personal income and a £5m gift from donor Christopher Harborne.
Farage's total income since his election in 2024 has reached £2m, including fees for speeches, TV appearances, and Cameo videos. This is on top of his £100,000 MP salary and a forthcoming EU pension of £73,000 per year. He has also accepted hospitality worth over £250,000, including trips to the US funded by GB News and a £50,000 ticket to Davos paid for by a billionaire.
The MP for Clacton has expanded his property portfolio to at least four homes, including two coastal properties in Kent bought through his company Thorn in the Side. The company's latest accounts show assets of £3.1m, including £2m in cash and a commercial fishing boat operated by his son.
Farage's partner Laure Ferrari owns a £885,000 house in his constituency, purchased in 2023. When questioned about the source of her wealth, she declined to comment. Farage previously claimed he bought the property but later said it was put in her name for security reasons.
