A rightwing US group backing an anti-abortion campaigner whose case has become a new source of UK tensions with the Trump administration is significantly expanding activities and spending in Britain.
The UK branch of Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), which is funding the case of Livia Tossici-Bolt – who is being prosecuted for an alleged breach of a “buffer zone” outside a Bournemouth abortion clinic – increased spending on campaigning and other activities in the UK to more than £1m last year.
