Motion Text

That this House believes legislation is urgently required to make it unlawful for UK citizens who are not UK residents for tax purposes to make large donations to UK political parties; notes that the Political Parties and Elections Bill currently before the House provides a vehicle for addressing this issue; and urges the Government to table appropriate amendments and, in the meantime, invites hon. Members to research via the blue rosette the website of the hon. Member for Pendle to the scale and impact of unrestricted and unregulated spending in Pendle as over the last two years.
