Farage's Earnings from Gold Bullion Promotion
Posters featuring Nigel Farage promoting Direct Bullion were displayed at the Reform UK conference in Birmingham last year.
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has declared earnings of £270,000 for advertising gold bullion, marking the largest payment he has registered since becoming a Member of Parliament.
According to the list of MPs' interests, Farage stated that the payment from Direct Bullion was for work estimated at four hours per month over a three-month period.
"Nigel Farage clearly has the Midas touch when it comes to lining his pockets instead of doing his day job."
A spokesman for Farage commented,
"As has previously been reported and declared, Nigel Farage is a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion."
Farage has previously declared payments from Direct Bullion, including £91,200 in February 2025 and £135,000 in November 2025.
In the latest declarations, he also recorded an estimated £18,402 for his role as a presenter on GB News.
Financial Scrutiny and Investigations
The Clacton MP has faced increasing scrutiny regarding his finances, particularly concerning an undeclared £5 million gift from cryptocurrency investor and billionaire Christopher Harborne.
Farage has maintained that he was not required to declare the gift because it was received prior to his election to Parliament and was not a political donation.
The Parliamentary Standards Commissioner is currently investigating whether Farage violated any rules related to this matter.
Previously, Farage had declared earnings exceeding £80,000 from creating personalised video messages for individuals on the Cameo website.
However, in March of this year, he announced a pause in providing this service, citing security concerns.
MPs are permitted to undertake second jobs separate from their parliamentary duties, but they must declare any income exceeding £300 annually. They are prohibited from offering paid parliamentary advice.
"He should be focused on putting more pounds back in his Clacton constituents' pockets rather than racking up payments off the back of gold sales."
