NEWS RELEASE: Representation of the People Bill will not fix corporate donation loopholes – consider a ban to protect UK democracy, says independent report

Corporate political donations should be banned altogether because the Representation of the People Bill will not stop companies being used to funnel anonymous and foreign money into UK politics, argues a new report from the Centre for the Analysis of Taxation (CenTax).

They find that the current system fails to deliver transparency or prevent foreign interference, and that the Representation of the People Bill, currently being debated by parliament, will not fix these problems.
