The Conservative Party must sever all links to Russian business and supporters

The UK Conservative Party has extensive and lucrative links to Russian businessmen, both from donations to the party and investments in Russian companies.
The party has received many millions of pounds from Russian donors, and many Conservative MPs have had extensive and lucrative personal relations with wealthy Russians. Our current Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss (accompanied by Theresa May) was paid £135,000 for having dinner with the wife of Vladimir Putin's former finance minister, Lyubov Chernukhin. Boris Johnson himself was paid £160,000 for having a tennis match with the same finance minister. The current co-chair of the party, Ben Elliot, not only has a personal business offering help to wealthy Russians so they can buy property in London, but has also raised nearly £2,000,000 of Russia-linked donations for the party. Jacob Rees-Mogg invested £5.7million in Gennady Timchenko's conglomerate. These are only a small selection of examples, and the links go back many years. There are many more. Please google reliable sources.
Three things must happen:
1. All donations to the Conservative party from Russians must be declared, returned or donated to charity.
2. All business links, of any kind must be declared and severed.
3. All meetings with wealthy Russians (or events of any type), must stop if their purpose is to request donations to the party.
