Cap of £10,000 per individual donor to political parties

Closed 1,575 signatures

What the petition asks

Currently anyone can give an unlimited amount to political parties. The cross-party Committee on Standards in Public Life has recommended a cap of £10,000 per individual donor.
We think the £10,000 cap should be implemented to prevent billionaires buying influence in British politics & undermining our political institutions & democracy.
