Background
To protect UK democracy from foreign interference, we must ensure political parties are funded only by British citizens. Allowing donations from non-citizens risks compromising national sovereignty, undermining transparency, and reducing public trust in our elections. A ban will safeguard fairness, ensure funding reflects the electorate's will, and maintain confidence in our democratic process.
