About


Democracy for Sale is an independent media project run by two of Britain's leading investigative journalists, Peter Geoghegan and Lucas Amin. They've won multiple awards for their fearless exposing of dark money and opaque funding in British politics.

Now, through Democracy For Sale, they are once again taking on the rich and powerful.

Can you help?

As well as publishing investigative reporting and analysis pieces, we work with lawyers to fight legal cases against government secrecy in the public interest. These cases are taken on our behalf and for other information requesters who we ‘match make’ with legal support.

Our work is supported by our readers and grants from the following organisations in 2026:
The Joffe Trust (£50,000) 
Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust (£47,846)
Reva and David Logan Foundation ($25,000)
The Cobalt Trust (£30,000)
The Baring Foundation (£25,000)
Network for Social Change (£20,000)
Law for Change (£5,000)
