My link to a story about lobbying in Australia was so popular I thought I’d post this item from Britain’s The Daily Mirror about a Tory leader’s comments on lobbyists.

David Cameron’s pledge to end the rule of sleazy lobbyists is exposed as a sham.

This week the Tory leader condemned the “far-too-cosy relationship between politics, government, business and money” and promised to stop “secret corporate lobbying” if he wins power.
