It is critical that any politician or political party who has accepted donations from individuals or organisations that have Russian origin must transfer these funds to the Democratic Government of Ukraine.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about use of political donations are a matter for individual political parties, not the UK Government or Parliament.
