13 Eylül 2026The Guardian

Reform UK has secured £72 million in donations from two crypto billionaires, raising questions about its financial integrity.
Reform UK has made headlines after receiving a record £72 million in donations from two cryptocurrency billionaires, Christopher Harborne and Ben Delo. This amount marks the largest single donations in British political history and comes at a crucial time as the party gears up for the next general election in 2029.
While this financial boost enhances Reform's operational capabilities, it raises questions about the party's financial integrity and the implications of its crypto-friendly policies.
Reform UK, an anti-immigration party, is positioning itself as a viable alternative in British politics, especially with the upcoming general election. The substantial donations from Harborne and Delo not only provide financial leverage but also reflect the growing intersection of cryptocurrency and political funding.
The unprecedented donations to Reform UK highlight a significant shift in political financing, particularly with the influence of cryptocurrency. While the financial support may bolster the party's visibility and resources, it could also alienate traditional voters concerned about the ethics of such funding.
