After Philip Rycroft's review of foreign interference in UK elections the Govt. has immediately capped donations by non-resident UK citizens to £100k per year & have temporarily banned *all* donations in crypto-currencies.
And, while both the Govt. & Rycroft have explicitly stated this was not aimed at any specific political party, Reform UK Ltd's funding closely matches what is being outlawed.... but the Q. is whether is Reform is a Ltd they might sidestep such constraints?
