Summary

Reform UK has rejected claims that its leader Nigel Farage failed to declare benefits provided by a crypto-entrepreneur, who was jailed for fraud in the United States nine years ago. The Sunday Times says George Cottrell provided Mr Farage with security and social media support before he was elected, as well as use of a rented property in central London. In other news, Police Scotland say they're making inquiries after a complaint was made about the finances of Yes Scotland - a group which campaigned in favour of independence during the 2014 referendum. And England are taking on Mexico in their crucial World Cup knock-out game in Mexico City.
