Party donations are an important part of politics. They are an important indicator of political support. We try to present this data clearly and comprehensibly.
The data used here comes from the Electoral Commission and includes all political donations that have been documented there since 2010 and exceed £1,000.
The donation data is updated quarterly.
Due to the high number of minor political parties, we only track donations for parties that meet a specific threshold. The current threshold is set at a total of £10K in contributions to that party, regardless of the size of individual donations.
