Investigate Reform UK (Brexit Party) for Possible Foreign Influence.

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

The public calls on the UK Government to conduct an independent investigation into whether Reform UK, formerly the Brexit Party, or anyone linked to it has faced foreign influence risks, following the recent conviction of former MEP Nathan Gill for taking pro-Russian payments.
We, the public, call for an independent investigation into whether Reform UK, formerly the Brexit Party, has been exposed to any foreign influence. The recent conviction of former MEP Nathan Gill for accepting payments linked to pro-Russian interests raises serious public concern. We are not alleging wrongdoing by others, but we want transparency and reassurance that no wider influence attempts took place. This inquiry will help protect democracy and strengthen safeguards against interference.

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

The Govt has set up an independent review which will, among other things, look into Reform:
