Olena Zelenska, the wife of Ukraine’s president, recently bought a new Bugatti – according to the headline of one French news article. The article is fake and appears to be part of a rise in Kremlin-linked disinformation operations in the run-up to UK and French elections. #UKpolitics #Frenchpolitics #Ukraine #disinformation

We went undercover and arranged a series of payments to each of the six major UK parties to test how easy it is for a foreign donor to make illegal political contributions. Only one party correctly identified and blocked the money. A political donation is considered to be anything above £500 and can only be done by those on the UK electoral register. So we asked an overseas resident who is neither British nor registered to vote to make a series of payments totalling £525 to the six parties online. Labour was the only party to block the final donation that would have taken the total over the limit. The Conservatives, Reform UK, Liberal Democrats, Green Party and SNP all failed to bar or return the payments – showing how easy it is to bypass laws meant to limit improper influence by foreign donors. #UKpolitics #conservatives #labour #greenparty #SNP #Reform #generalelection
