  • John Curtice, Stephen Fisher, Robert Ford and Patrick English
    APPENDIX 1: THE RESULtS ANaLYSED John Curtice, Stephen Fisher, Robert Ford and Patrick English The outcome of the 2017 election seems to pose a serious challenge to claims about the decline of Britain’s two-party system. No less than 84.5% of the UK-wide vote was cast for either the Conservatives or Labour, well above the proportion at any election since 1970. At 2.88, the effective number of parties in the electorate (as conventionally calculated) is still somewhat above two, but is now well down on the figure of 3.71 that pertained as recently as 2010.1 But the term ‘two-party system’, is often used to imply more than two parties dominating the vote. Amongst other things, it is also taken to refer to a system in which power and ministerial office alternate between the Conservatives and Labour, one of whom, thanks to the electoral system, always enjoys an overall majority in the House of Commons. But in 2017 no single party secured an overall major- ity, and the election resulted in a minority Conservative government backed by a ‘confidence and supply’ arrangement with the DUP. This fol- lows an election in 2010 which also resulted in a hung parliament (and the formation of the country’s first post-war coalition) and another in 2015 that gave the Conservatives a majority of just 12, a majority that in precipi- tating the early 2017 ballot Theresa May indicated was too small. There is another reason to question whether the outcome of the 2017 election necessarily represented a return to some kind of ‘normality’.

Depuis la nuit du 3 avril 2016, un groupe de recherche international de journalistes révèle jour après jour la substantifique moelle de 11,5 millions de documents représentant 2,6 teraoctets de données. Il s'agit de la plus importante divulgation en nombre jusqu'à ce jour, en se focalisant sur les noms des personnalités présumées frauder le fisc en dissimulant 'leur' argent dans les 'paradis' (enfers) fiscaux. Mais il faut avoir à l'esprit qu'il s'agit aussi pour beaucoup de détournements de fonds publics, de commissions occultes et donc de corruption, de marchés truqués et donc de rackets d'entreprises payant pour décrocher un contrat. Le but principal de ces fonds off-shore est et de loin de blanchir l'argent issu de telles pratiques, mais aussi celle des trafics illégaux, drogues et armes au premier chef. Une petite minorité de ces sociétés-écrans cachent le financement d'opérations secrètes (espionnage).

  • Readings Materials for Global Corruption Regulation Compliance
    1-2 CORRUPTION IN CONTEXT: SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL DIMENSIONS 1. WHY CORRUPTION MATTERS: THE ADVERSE EFFECTS OF CORRUPTION 1.1 A Case Illustration of the Impact of Corruption The following TV report investigates the cancellation of World Bank funding ($1.2 billion loan) for a major bridge proposal (worth nearly $3 billion) in Bangladesh, critical to both the economic growth of the country and the safety of hundreds of thousands of poor Bangladesh citizens who cross the Padma River daily in crowded, unsafe boats. The World Bank cancelled funding for the bridge project because very senior politicians and officials in the Bangladesh government allegedly solicited bribes from bidding companies. SNC-Lavalin allegedly agreed to pay those bribes in order to get the engineering contract (worth $50 million) to supervise the bridge construction. SNC-Lavalin is one of the five largest international engineering firms in the world. It is based in Canada and operates in over 100 other countries. “SNC and a Bridge for Bangladesh” CBC, the National, Investigative Report (15 minutes), aired May 15, 2013 (see CBC The National, CBC Player: http://www.cbc.ca/player/News/TV+Shows/The+National/ID/2385492220/). More Background on the Padma Bridge Corruption Scandal When allegations of bribery concerning the awarding of the engineering contract to SNC-Lavalin arose, the World Bank (WB) instituted an investigation by an external evaluation panel in the Fall of 2012.
