Petition Action

Tighten the rules on political donations

Petition Details

We want the government to:
Remove loopholes that allow wealthy foreign individuals to make donations into UK political parties (e.g. by funnelling through UK registered companies).

Cap all donations to a reasonable amount.

Review limits on the fines that can be levied for breaking the rules

Additional Information

We think that ultra-rich individuals or foreign state actors should not be able to use their money to give unfair advantage to a political party in order to further their own agenda.
