Hello again and happy polling day. Unlike many other news organisations, Dark Arts will not be endorsing any political party, meaning readers will need to look deep into their consciences and find an answer to that one on their own. But do remember to take ID to your local polling station when you go and vote this rabble out, though.
Our main story today, courtesy of openDemocracy investigations editor Martin Williams, is about a group that organises trips to Israel for MPs and their staffers – and refuses to reveal how it is funded. As voters head to the polls, Dark Arts thought it would be worth sharing the story to highlight the pretty clear consensus among the outgoing government and its likely successor on the major foreign policy issue of the moment – and the work that goes on behind the scenes to protect that consensus.
We’ve also got a final look at the money shaping this election before the contest concludes. Spoiler: most of it went to Labour. A shorter edition this week as Dark Arts is working away on a major investigation due out early next week – so stay tuned for that.
