Reform UK MP says he will give salary to charity

A new Reform UK MP has said he will donate his net MP salary to charities and worthy causes in his constituency.

Rupert Lowe, who represents Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, indicated he would make a donation each month.

He announced the move in a post on X and his spokesman said the first payment would be made soon.

The UK Parliament website says the basic annual salary for an MP, since 1 April, is £91,346.
