Dec. 16 (UPI) -- The United Kingdom has commissioned a review of outside political influence into British politicians in the country after Nathan Gill was jailed for accepting bribes from Russia.
Communities Secretary Steve Reed announced the review to Parliament Tuesday.
"The facts are clear. A British politician took bribes to further the interests of the Russian regime, a regime which forcefully deported vulnerable Ukrainian children and delivered a deadly nerve agent attack on U.K. soil, killing a British citizen.
"This conduct is a stain on our democracy. This independent review will advance this government's work to remove that stain."
