Exclusive: Nigel Farage turned down taxpayer-funded security including a bodyguard, car and trained driver last year, The i Paper has learned.  The Reform UK leader was offered the protection following police advice on the threats he faced. He had already been receiving publicly-funded security prior to this, and felt that his package had been downgraded. It would have given Farage a similar level of security to Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and some high-profile Cabinet ministers. Farage declined the offer because he considered the protection to be inadequate. A Reform spokesman suggested Farage needed stronger protection than the leader of the opposition, telling The i Paper he is “the most targeted politician in Britain and the only party leader who actually goes out to meet the public in huge numbers on the campaign trail”. The spokesman also denied that Farage rejected protection, adding: “He declined a downgraded and inadequate package.” By @singharj w/ myself and @kitty_donaldson

Surely at some point - given England and everything - it’s going to be ok to start playing Wonderwall on the guitar again..? (Obviously not in guitar shops, but anywhere else) #guiltypleasures

What a sad loss so young. Dermot was a very fine journalist and presenter whose career spanned all the main British broadcasters. He was also very kind - I saw this as he became a supporter of @DuchenneUK cycling to Paris for us, recruiting colleagues and raising thousands of pounds as well as donating himself. Rest in Peace.

It is with great sadness that the family of Dermot Murnaghan announces that he passed away at home in North London earlier this morning (11th July) at the age of 68 following a period of illness with prostate cancer. He died peacefully with his family at his side.

Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Restore all refuse to contest the Clacton by-election. At this rate the only serious opposition faced by @Nigel_Farage could be @CountBinface - which is an interesting challenge for tactical voting.

A Farage reset will mean the clock on his declarations also resets - so if there are other declarable "gifts" he received in the year before the 2024 election that we don't know about he will no longer have to tell anyone. The inquiry into the £5 million - when it resumes - could ask him direct questions about that - but he may or may not answer
