两位加密货币亿万富翁向英国改革党各捐赠3600万英镑，创造了该国政党历史上最大的单笔捐款记录2。本·德洛和克里斯托弗·哈伯恩的捐款并列成为英国政治融资中最高的个人捐献2。其中，德洛获得了美国总统特朗普的赦免1。
改革党领导人奈杰尔·法拉奇对这两笔捐款表示感谢，称"我很荣幸本·德洛和克里斯托弗·哈伯恩对改革党表现出如此的信心"2。哈伯恩则明确表示，"我对这些捐赠的期望是什么？什么都不期望。没有贵族爵位，没有政策改变，只是一个已为执政做好准备的政党"2。
伦敦警察厅正对改革党的财务进行调查2，法拉奇也面临议会道德调查，涉及他在2024年当选议员前收到的500万英镑礼物2。改革党和法拉奇否认了任何不当行为2。
Two cryptocurrency billionaires have made massive donations to Britain's Reform UK party, each contributing £36 million to the political organization led by Nigel Farage.2 These donations represent the largest single contributions in British political history.2
Ben Delo, who was pardoned by Trump, and Christopher Harborne have each provided the record-breaking gifts to Reform UK.12 Harborne stated his expectations for the donations, saying: "So what do I expect in return for my donations? Nothing. No peerage, no policy change, just a party that is ready for government."2 Farage responded to the contributions, expressing that he was "honoured and humbled that Ben Delo and Christopher Harborne have shown such confidence in Reform."2
The substantial donations have intensified scrutiny of political financing in Britain. However, both Reform UK and Farage have faced ongoing investigations. The London Metropolitan Police are conducting a financial investigation into Reform UK's finances,2 while Farage himself is subject to a parliamentary ethics investigation concerning a £5 million gift he received before his election as an MP in 2024.2 Both Farage and the party have denied any wrongdoing.2
