Keir Starmer’s Government is being urged to back a new bill aimed at limiting the size of political donations and closing loopholes that allow foreign billionaires like Elon Musk to bankroll British politics.
Liberal Democrat MP Manuela Perteghellas’s Political Donations Bill, launched in Parliament on Wednesday (12th February) would establish the first-ever cap on how much individuals and companies can give to political parties in the UK, while also restricting the ability of foreign nationals to donate through UK-registered companies.
