The United Kingdom has initiated an independent investigation into foreign interference in British politics. This follows the sentencing of Nathan Gill, a former Member of the European Parliament and ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales, who was jailed for over 10 years for accepting bribes to promote pro-Russia statements.

Steve Reed, the UK’s Secretary of State for Housing, Communities, and Local Government, announced the probe in response to Gill's case. Gill admitted to accepting bribes from a pro-Russian politician in Ukraine between 2018 and 2019. The investigation aims to address the impact of foreign interference on the UK’s democratic processes.

The independent review is led by Philip Rycroft, former UK Permanent Secretary for the Department for Exiting the European Union. The review will assess current financial rules and safeguards and provide recommendations. Rycroft is expected to report his findings by the end of March.

The British government recently introduced a strategy aimed at ensuring modern and secure elections. However, Reed emphasized the need to evaluate the adequacy of existing measures against foreign interference.

The review will examine the UK's political finance laws, systems for identifying and mitigating foreign interference, and safeguards against illicit funding.
