The Metropolitan Police is investigating a donation of £37,500 received by Robert Jenrick's Conservative leadership campaign in 2024, following claims that the funds originated overseas.

The Electoral Commission initially scrutinized allegations that part of the donation came from the US company Innovyz, which was founded by Gary Klopfenstein, a US businessman convicted of wire fraud.Jenrick, now a Reform UK MP, has denied the allegations, stating they are politically motivated and false.He claims the donation from Spott Fitness Ltd was legally permissible and that he had no contact with Innovyz or its founder.The Electoral Commission confirmed it referred the matter to the police in January 2025, and the investigation remains ongoing.Jenrick's campaign team asserts they complied with all electoral laws and provided records to disprove the claims.The Conservative Party reiterated that all candidates were reminded of donation regulations.The case highlights tensions over foreign influence in UK politics and the enforcement of electoral laws.
