TheyWorkForYou is run by mySociety, a small UK charity.
We're a very efficient operation and do a lot with a small team. At the moment TheyWorkForYou, which is used by millions of people each year, is run with less than the equivalent of one full-time person.
If we had a bit more money, we could achieve a lot more.
We want MPs to meet the standards and expectations of the people who elected them - you!
If you share that goal please donate today to enable greater transparency and accountability of the next government.
Learn more about our current work, and our new project WhoFundsThem - looking into MPs’ and APPGs’ financial interests.

Former MP for Preston
Entered the House of Commons on 14 December 1918 — General election
Left the House of Commons on 7 October 1931 — General election
That is an unwarrantable assertion. There is no Member of the present Front Bench who ever proposed any of the cuts of which he speaks.
The right hon. and gallant Gentleman said that the Members of the Front Opposition Bench had proposed those cuts. That is an unqualified error, and bears not a, single scrap of truth in it.
I am sure the right hon. Gentleman always desires to be fair. Will he remember, as I have reminded him before, that when that Bill was introduced I said definitely to the House that the Bill did not represent what I thought was a right thing but all that I thought we could get out of the House?
