We did it! Foreign political donations are being banned, including the dodgy "front company" loophole.

Almost two thirds of people in the UK have cut back on essentials due to the cost of living. The crisis isnโ€™t over โ€” itโ€™s getting worse.

Today we're launching the Cost of Living Action campaign, calling on the Government to end this crisis and ensure it never happens again.

Itโ€™s been over 6 years since the UK officially left the EU.

If there were an EU referendum tomorrow, how would you vote?

Secretive US tech company Palantir is getting its claws into our public services - including running a huge patient database for our NHS.

Ministers could choose to scrap the deal early, with some MPs calling for ALL contracts with the company to stop. What would you want to see?

Nichaโ€™s 8yo son has had to leave the family home, feeling sick and unable to eat.

Why? Because of the disgusting, illegal dump on King Charlesโ€™ land nearby.

What more will it take for the King to clean up this filth?

Weโ€™re sick of elites dodging consequences.

Men with close ties to Jeffrey Epstein were protected, rewarded and allowed to carry on as normal. If justice means anything, it has to apply to the powerful too.

With investigations underway, we need to demand the full force of the law. Are you in?

Big money is buying too much influence in our politics.

Secretive companies, some linked to foreign billionaires, are donating millions to major political parties.

Should there be a cap on political donations?

The two child benefit limit was responsible for driving child poverty to its current record high. It had a devastating impact on hundreds of thousands of young lives. The Governmentโ€™s decision to scrap it will lift 450,000 children out of poverty.

This isnโ€™t just a story about one disgraceful Lord - itโ€™s a glimpse into how money is distorting every bit of our politics.

If someone as disreputable as Epstein can buy such easy access, whatโ€™s stopping anyone else?
