Nathan Gill, the former leader of Reform UK in Wales, has been sentenced to 10-and-a-half years in prison for taking bribes as part of a pro-Russia influence campaign.
Gill, 52, was paid thousands of pounds to give TV interviews in favour of a key Vladimir Putin ally and to make speeches in the European Parliament, where he was an MEP from 2014 to 2020.
He had admitted eight counts of bribery between 2018 and 2019.
Judge Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb described it as "sophisticated offending" and said the harm it inflicted is "profound".
