Peter Geoghegan: dark money and dirty politics
Democracy is in crisis and unaccountable flows of money are helping to destroy it. Peter Geoghegan’s new book, ‘Democracy for Sale: Dark Money and Dirty Politics’, charts how secretive money, lobbying and data has warped our democracy.
How has dark money bought our politics? What can be done to change the system?
Join us for a journey through a shadowy world of dark money and disinformation stretching from Westminster to Washington, and far beyond.
Sign up to take part in a free live discussion on Thursday 13 August at 5pm UK time/6pm CET

Peter Geoghegan Dark Money Investigations editor at openDemocracy and the author of ‘Democracy for Sale: Dark Money and Dirty Politics’.
