Nigel Farage met senior UAE officials to discuss Muslim Brotherhood on funded trip

The Financial Times reported the Emirati leadership wanted to speak to Reform ‘owing to a shared opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood’.

The United Arab Emirates paid for British politician Nigel Farage to travel to Abu Dhabi to meet senior officials over a shared opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood, it has emerged.

Farage, the leader of Reform UK – a populist right-wing party that is topping national opinion polls – visited Abu Dhabi in early December.

On Wednesday the Financial Times reported that Abu Dhabi gave Farage accommodation and passes to attend a Formula 1 race, valued at around £1,000 – according to the register of MPs’ interests.

Farage had meetings with senior Emirati officials during the two-day trip, the register said.
