Former Welsh Reform leader Nathan Gill has been sentenced to 10-and-a-half years in prison for taking pro-Russia bribes, eroding public trust in democracy.

This case marks the first politician to be jailed under the Bribery Act, with investigations ongoing to determine if others were involved in similar offenses related to Russian influence in UK politics.
