    I have posted this link on another thread, but it more belongs here. It is the Guardian’s summary of the audit:

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/jul/06/british-democracy-decline-report

    I am surprised this item has not drawn more interest since the amount donated by the 60 donors simply supports what is clearly happening within British politics – the main party’s policies are now designed for the benefit of these donors – primarily bankers, global corporations and union leaders.

    This is a very serious issue – surely more important than Lords reform – what is the Party doing about it – or is it hoping to benefit in a similar fashion through keeping quite?

    It’s a pity there is not some time controlled edit facility – ‘quiet’.
