Labour chair Anna Turley reports Nigel Farage’s claim that his phone was hacked by Russia-linked actors to the Metropolitan Police and the UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), after he fails to make a report within a 24-hour period. Turley had previously told Farage that he must contact the relevant authorities regarding his allegations that information linked to a major donation was illegally accessed and leaked by people connected to Moscow. According to the accounts, Turley frames the step as being in the “public and national interest” and says a properly coordinated investigation should take place. If Farage did not report it himself, Turley said her party would do it for him. The coverage also notes that Farage’s public assertions have prompted mounting questions about his claim and how it has been handled. The reports state that Labour’s action is aimed at ensuring government cybersecurity officials and police can assess the alleged intrusion. The outlets describe the dispute as part of broader political controversy but do not provide evidence confirming the alleged hack.
