💨 Abstract

Britain has initiated a review into foreign financial interference in its politics following the jailing of former MEP Nathan Gill for accepting Russian bribes. Gill, previously associated with Nigel Farage's parties, was sentenced to over 10 years. The review, led by Philip Rycroft, will examine political financing laws, party rules, and safeguards against illicit money, including cryptocurrency. It will also consider potential interference from countries like China.
