The UK’s digital imprint regime - is it working?
New requirements for digital imprints in online campaign material were rolled out in the 2024 general election. We review the guidance and recommend how to improve transparency requirements.

Friends or just fellow travellers? What Reform has in common with other populist right parties in Europe (and what it doesn’t) | Heinrich Böll Stiftung | Brussels office - European Union
