Nigel Farage urged to clarify whether he saved tax on Essex constituency home

Labour and Lib Dems call on Reform leader to say whether he gave partner money to buy £885,000 property

Labour and the Liberal Democrats have called for Nigel Farage to clarify whether he saved tax on a house in his constituency, after a BBC investigation questioned whether his partner did, as Farage has said, buy the home with her own money.

The Guardian first reported in May that the house in Clacton, which Farage initially said he had bought himself, is in fact wholly owned by Laure Ferrari, his long-term partner.
