Reform UK leader Nigel Farage is the highest-paid Member of Parliament. In less than two years as the MP for Clacton, Farage has racked up £2 million in personal income and gifts, on top of his £94,000 a year parliamentary salary.

As DeSmog has revealed, a substantial amount of Farage’s income has come from overseas interests – including foreign governments, companies, and donors.

Our map and tracker, launched in April 2026, provides real-time data on Farage’s funds.

The interactive map allows you to explore the money trail, while the table below provides a full breakdown of the payments and perks received by Reform’s leader.

All the data is based on Farage’s official register of interests, dating back to July 2024.
