Would a one-year £100,000 cap on donations from new overseas voters curb foreign influence?
The UK government is advancing legislation to impose a one-year £100,000 cap on political donations from British citizens who have recently moved back from overseas, alongside banning crypto donations. A review identified real and sustained risks of foreign financial interference in UK politics. The move follows multimillion-pound donations to Reform UK from British crypto billionaires based in Thailand and Hong Kong.

Not perfect, but a start. It’s a balancing act, I would say.
