Reform UK's Robert Jenrick clashed with Sky News presenter Trevor Phillips, dismissing claims that Nigel Farage is becoming a liability to the party. A report alleged Farage did not declare support from convicted criminal George Cottrell when he became an MP. Farage is also under investigation for not declaring a £5 million donation from a crypto-billionaire before winning his seat in 2024.
