“Nigel Farage has written to the Electoral Commission.”
Reasoning & Evidence21 Jul 2026
Multiple independent news outlets confirm that Nigel Farage did write to the Electoral Commission. The National Pulse reported on June 23, 2026 that "Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has written to the Electoral Commission urging an investigation" into Hope Not Hate Limited. Civil Society, a specialist publication covering the UK charity and civil society sector, published an article on June 25, 2026 stating: "The Reform UK leader wrote to the Electoral Commission 'demanding' a probe into private firm Hope Not Hate Limited over alleged breaches of electoral law on Tuesday." Third Sector magazine and Wigan Today also corroborate this, noting Farage's letter and the fact that Hope Not Hate Limited is registered with the Electoral Commission as a non-party campaigner. The Electoral Commission, Farage, and Reform UK were all approached for comment by these outlets, and Hope Not Hate Limited's spokesperson acknowledged the complaint, calling it "the second complaint Mr Farage has filed about Hope Not Hate in under a month."
The claim is narrowly about whether Farage wrote to the Electoral Commission — and this is clearly confirmed by multiple sources.

I have written to the Electoral Commission demanding an investigation into potential breaches of electoral law by Hope Not Hate.
Public trust in our elections depends on the rules being followed by everyone.
