So glad a debate is finally happening. This goes to the heart of the security of our democratic system. I’ve taken part in court cases against successive governments for their failure to investigate hostile state interference in UK elections - ministers’ lack of curiosity is truly shocking 👇
Today MPs will debate Russian interference in our politics and democracy.
This is why a full inquiry is still necessary 👉 citizensreunited.substack.com/p/britain-st...

A democracy that won’t investigate its own weaknesses - is a weak democracy. Let’s make sure Parliament doesn’t look away again.
