Who funds more than one party?

Most money in politics goes one way. Some of it does not. This page brings together donations recorded by the Electoral Commission and payments declared in the Register of Members' Interests, merged into a single record for each donor or benefactor, and asks one question of both: who is paying into more than one party at once?

Every registered interest is credited to the party its MP belonged to at the time it was declared, so an MP changing party does not carry their earlier declarations across with them. Figures cover the current parliament, from 5 July 2024 onwards. Public funding is excluded throughout.

How much of each party's money is shared?

Labour and the Conservatives share the most funders largely because they have the most funders. The rate is the more telling number, and it says cross-party funding is the exception almost everywhere.

Independent 24.7% 19 of 77
Scottish National Party 23.3% 10 of 43
Reform UK 12.3% 19 of 155
Labour (Co-op) 11.5% 152 of 1,326
Conservative 9.9% 119 of 1,200
Plaid Cymru 9.5% 2 of 21
Green Party 8.5% 10 of 118
Liberal Democrat 8.5% 82 of 970
Also funds another party This party only

Parties with fewer than 20 funders are left out — a percentage off a handful of records reads as a finding when it is noise. Alliance would otherwise show 100% off 1 funder, and sort top. Omitted: Sinn Féin (10), Your Party (7), Democratic Unionist Party (5), Social Democratic & Labour Party (3), Ulster Unionist Party (3), Restore Britain (2), Traditional Unionist Voice (2), Alliance (1), Speaker (1).

Shared ground

Not who funds, but which pairs of parties draw on the same money. Each ribbon is the number of funders those two parties have in common; only pairs sharing 3 or more are drawn. The number under each party is how many cross-party funders it has in total — count it once per funder, so it is smaller than adding up that party's ribbons, which count a funder again for every party it reaches.

Every cross-party funder

A row with cells filled right across is a funder paying everyone. Sort by any party to see who its largest shared funders are; funders who gave a party nothing always sort to the bottom. Cell shading is a log scale, because the amounts run from a few hundred pounds to several million.

We are also working to link related organisations and individuals in a coherent and informative way. All other areas of this site display data exactly 'as is' from the original source.
