Reform UK politicians promoted JCB pothole machine before £200,000 donation

Reform UK’s leading figures repeatedly promoted JCB’s pothole-fixing machine before the company donated £200,000 to the party.

Farage entered a rally on the vehicle last year, calling it a symbol of 'broken Britain.'

The commission has referred evidence to the Metropolitan Police. Jenrick denies any knowledge of the source and says he complied with all electoral laws.
