Vijay Rangarajan, chief executive of the Electoral Commission, told The Guardian it is “crucial” that people have “trust in the financing” of the political system.
Mr Rangarajan told the newspaper: “It’s crucial that UK voters have trust in the financing of our political system, so they need to see how parties and campaigners are financed and how they spend that money at elections.”
