Rejected petition Limit Political Donations to £10,000 to Prevent Elections from Being Bought.

Asking the UK Parliament to introduce legislation that limits individual & corporate political donations to a maximum of £10,000 per year. It's essential to prevent elections from being bought by the wealthiest individuals & corporations to ensure fair and democratic elections.

More details

Large donations can significantly influence political decisions, undermining equal representation. A cap on donations will enhance transparency and accountability in political funding. Limiting donations will encourage diverse voices in the political process. We urge the UK Parliament to: Cap individual and corporate donations at £10,000. Implement strict enforcement mechanisms. Increase transparency by requiring detailed public reporting of all donations.
