Two Reform UK Officials Quit After Donation Plot

đŸŋī¸ The Squirrel's Take
The resignations turn Channel 4's hidden-camera footage from a story into a live party crisis, forcing Farage to answer for his inner circle hours before his keynote speech.
💡 Why it matters
With Labour already pushing the police to investigate, the scandal could trigger a formal electoral law probe and overshadow Reform UK's conference message.

Reform UK's head of policy James Orr and senior aide Dan Jukes stepped down after Channel 4 undercover filming showed them discussing bypassing foreign donation rules. The party suspended both men and launched an investigation, while Labour referred the matter to police.
