Donations to UK politics from abroad

The Electoral Commission records the address country of every donor. 842 declared donations carry a country outside the UK, totalling £4,272,897 across 79 different jurisdictions. An overseas address does not by itself make a donation impermissible: the Electoral Commission decides which donors are permissible. The table shows where declared donors' addresses are.
