Davey on Nathan Gill sentencing: “Nigel Farage and his party are a danger to national security”

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to the news that Reform’s former Wales leader, Nathan Gill, has been sentenced to ten and a half years in prison after being found guilty of taking bribes from Russia, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said:

“A traitor was at the very top of Reform UK, aiding and abetting a foreign adversary. Nigel Farage and his party are a danger to national security.

“Nigel Farage himself was previously paid to be on Putin’s TV channel, Russia Today, and said he was the world leader he admires the most. We must all ask - where do his loyalties really lie? 

“We need a full investigation into Russian interference in our politics.”
