Junior UK Minister Robert Jenrick says the government short-changed former Reform UK leader Nigel Farage by not providing him taxpayer-funded security in 2025.
Farage declined the offer of a personal guard, secured vehicle, and driver despite cited threats.
The denial arrived one year after the 2024 General Election.
Jenrick now labels the decision 'irresponsible' amid persistent security risks.
Cabinet Office sources assert no government-funded protection was used during Farage’s period as a public figure.
