“I believe that secret corporate lobbying, like the expenses scandal, goes to the heart of why people are so fed up with politics.” So said David Cameron just last month.
Yet, as the Observer reveals this weekend , some of his party’s current crop of prospective MPs aren't being fully transparent with voters about their links to the lobbying industry. (Parliamentary candidates working as lobbyists aren’t confined to the Conservative party, but they do make up the majority). Find out more.
The Alliance for Lobbying Transparency has teamed up with 38 Degrees – the 100,000-strong online campaign group – to press for greater transparency in lobbying by asking Parliamentary candidates to pledge their support for new transparency rules for lobbyists.
And we need your help.
