      Surely we’d also have to know how much each politician earns with total income for this to be meaningful?

      I guess the 2 in 10 just didn’t know they weren’t doing that?

      Not only this, but every single penny they “earn” from lobbyists, whether as part of a company or an individual, should be published front & centre of an easy to find (and use) website with regular updates.

      Let’s make politics transparent and politicians accountable for any potential undue influences.

      Suprised that many care. Do 8 in 10 people check what tax their window cleaner pays?

      I think I’d prefer to know where they’re getting their income from. How they pay their tax is something for Hmrc to monitor. Just seeing their tax bill won’t tell me if Farage is getting millions from bad actors

      Seems like an open goal for Starmer to introduce something like that. He needs to position himself as a man of integrity (even though he isn’t) vs Farage the snake oil salesman.

      Given the level of distrust voters tend to have for politicians, their publishing their financial incomings would go a long way into establishing some trust

      Democracy depends on transparency and self-correcting mechanisms like free media, courts, and elections. That’s why most Britons want politicians to publish their tax returns.

      Real accountability comes not from speeches but from proof that leaders serve the public, not themselves. And if they don’t, democracy must correct it.

      Title should read: 2 in 10 Britons are related to politicians.
