Today we look at a story from the Sunday Times that details benefits that Nigel Farage received from a convicted fraudster George Cottrell, including staff, security and housing. Reform says its party leader has broken no rules by failing to declare the support given to him before he became an MP. The journalist who led the team behind the story and host of the podcast, Posh George: the criminal behind Farage, Gabriel Pogrund, speaks to Laura and Paddy about what they found out. They talk about who George Cottrell is and what the rules actually say. You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker. If you want to listen, just say "Ask �鶹�� Sounds to play Newscast”.
