Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says he’ll quit his Parliament seat and seek reelection in an attempt to clear his name over financial allegations. Farage said in a broadcast statement Tuesday that he has “done nothing wrong" and has not "broken the law in any way." He did not take questions. Farage faces a probe by Parliament’s standards watchdog over a $6.7 million gift from a Thailand-based cryptocurrency billionaire. Opposition lawmakers seek another investigation over separate donations. Farage is a prominent ally of U.S. President Donald Trump and had been considered a favorite to be prime minister after the next national election.
