Asked

What steps he is taking with Cabinet colleagues to help protect democratic processes from foreign interference.

Protecting UK democratic processes from foreign interference is a top priority for the Government. The Joint Election Security and Preparedness Unit coordinates work across government to respond to a range of threats to elections, including foreign interference. We are implementing our Counter Political Interference and Espionage Action Plan to harden UK politics against foreign interference, and the Rycroft review into foreign financial interference in UK politics is underway.
