美国驻伦敦使馆推出一项补助金计划，向英国公共教育项目提供最高50万美元的资金，以促进"共同文明价值观"，这一举措招致英国政界对美国干预英国民主的指控[1]。该计划名为"自由与法治：共同的英美传统"，优先资助那些强调"言论自由、正当程序、陪审团审判、有限政府、法治、财产权、征税同意和有序自由"等议题的倡议[1]。
美国国务院还计划向英国保守党政治人物雅各布·里斯-莫格和托比·扬创办的组织提供1200万美元的资金[1]。英国自由民主党议员丽莎·斯马特对此提出质疑，表示"我们不需要特朗普的Maga金钱干预我们的民主"[1]。一名美国国务院官员则披露，该举措旨在"创建源自英国的叙述来支持Maga宣传"[1]。
The US Embassy in London is offering grants of up to $500,000 to fund public education initiatives promoting "shared civilizational values," drawing accusations from British politicians of American meddling in domestic democracy [1]. The grant scheme, titled "Liberty Under Law: The Shared Anglo-American Tradition," prioritizes projects emphasizing "free speech, due process, jury trials, limited government, rule of law, property rights, consent to taxation, and ordered liberty" [1].
The program comes as the US State Department plans to direct $12 million to organizations founded by British Conservative politicians Jacob Rees-Mogg and Toby Young [1]. Liberal Democrat MP Lisa Smart criticized the funding, stating: "We don't need Trump's MAGA money interfering in our democracy" [1]. According to a US State Department official cited in reporting, the initiative aims to "create narratives originating from Britain to support MAGA propaganda" [1].
