Reform UK Deputy Leader Richard Tice Allegedly Failed to Pay £100k Corporation Tax

Richard Tice, deputy leader of Reform UK, allegedly failed to pay almost £100,000 in corporation tax through four shell companies between 2020-2022, with his investment company Tisun Investments Ltd transferring £1.113m to Reform UK during that period. The Sunday Times reported the companies were set up to receive dividends from Tice's property investment firm. Tice acknowledged potential errors and stated he would pay what is owed. Labour party chair Anna Turley called for Nigel Farage to explain why Tice remains deputy leader.
