A senior UK security official is pushing for a temporary freeze on cryptocurrency donations to political parties, warning that foreign governments could exploit the hard-to-trace nature of digital currencies to quietly shape British politics. Matt Western, who chairs the Joint Committee on National Security Strategy, sent a letter to Housing Secretary Steve Reed on Monday urging the government to act before the threat grows any larger. Six Agencies, No Clear Leader - And A Problem That Keeps Growing Western's concern runs deeper than just donations. He pointed out that enforcing rules around political funding and foreign interference is currently split across six separate bodies - the Electoral Commission, the Metropolitan Police Service, Counter-Terror Policing, the National Crime Agency, MI5, and local police forces.

His letter recommends creating a dedicated national police unit focused entirely on political finance oversight and foreign interference risks - a longer-term fix to what he sees as a structural weakness in the current system.#Create Content for HTX and Win a Share of 1000U! #HTX Trading Championship #Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge
