Closed petition: Reform the funding of political parties in the UK, with a limit on donations.
Closed on
1 Ban corporate gifts above £5000 to a political party in a calendar year, treating a company and all its related entities as one company for this purpose.
2 Ban any gift above £5000 from any individual.
3 State fund political parties, with strict guide lines and limited budgets.
We think there is too much influence from the corporate world on our politics. If parties relied on smaller donations, we think they would need to re-connect with the general public to gain financial support.
