Whose Democracy Is It Anyway?

Politics is broken: just 4% of the public trust MPs to act in the national interest. And with one in six members of the House of Lords paid advisors, and mega donations at record highs, it is no surprise why.

Transparency International UK is partnering with Fabian Society at this year's Labour Party Conference to explore how the Labour Government can reverse this decades-long democratic decline and make politics finally work for communities across the entire UK.

Speakers:

  • Stella Creasy MP – Member of Parliament for Walthamstow

  • Baroness Margaret Hodge – Prime Minster’s Anti-Corruption Champion

  • Neal Lawson – Executive Director, Compass

  • Duncan Hames – Senior Director of Policy and UK programmes, Transparency International UK

  • Iggy Wood – Head of Editorial, Fabian Society (chair)
