US to Fund UK Conservative Groups | London News
Description
The Trump administration is poised to funnel $12 million to UK conservative groups linked to Jacob Rees-Mogg and Toby Young—$7 million to a newly launched think tank pushing anti-immigration and “ancient culture” agendas, and $5 million to a free speech advocacy group targeting digital regulation. Critics decry the move as a misuse of taxpayer funds, arguing it bypasses standard competitive bidding and fuels foreign political influence aligned with MAGA ideals, while the State Department insists all grants undergo strict vetting.
