Original Note:
FARA prohibits unregistered agents of a foreign govt. from advocating for that govt.'s interests in the US. These activists work for a UK political party (not the UK govt.) and would have advocated for a US candidate (not the UK govt.), so they cannot be charged under FARA. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_Agents_Registration_Act
