Today marked the end of my 7-year tenure as Chief Executive of @transparencyuk.bsky.social. I will soon join @channel4.bsky.social as Chief Corporate Affairs Officer. I am beyond grateful to the TI-UK team for their commitment, expertise, companionship and indefatigable resolve. #AntiCorruption

I was pleased to meet Scotland’s First Minister @johnswinney.bsky.social earlier. Together with @muteswann.bsky.social we discussed his government’s work on an inaugural Scottish Anti-Corruption Strategy and @transparencyuk.bsky.social’s policy recommendations for the process.

1/5 The UK Covid 19 Inquiry's report into procurement is stark: the now notorious VIP lane for PPE contracts should never have happened and must never happen again. It contributed to £10bn of taxpayer money being wasted.

It's been an extraordinary privilege to lead the vital work of @transparencyuk.bsky.social for nearly seven years. I am now preparing for a new challenge in an exciting new role at Channel 4 where I take up post in October. www.channel4.com/press/news/c...

Colleagues and I question the merits of yet another review of shortcomings in UK government lobbying & transparency arrangements. As @duncanhames.bsky.social told @politico.eu: ‘Ministers already have a blueprint for reform’. www.politico.eu/newsletter/p... #AntiCorruption #Lobbying

Successive UK governments have avoided taking bold measures that are sorely needed to rebuild trust in politics. In this febrile moment of scrutiny of various failures in public standards, surely now would be a good time to act. www.transparency.org.uk/news/when-co... #AntiCorruption #UKPolitics

Good to be in Downing St for a reception to acknowledge contributions from Civil Society & others to the work of the Covid Counter Fraud Commissioner. We @transparencyuk.bsky.social found 3+ corruption red flags in £15bn, a third of PPE/testing contracts. www.transparency.org.uk/publications...

The Trump administration has halted enforcement of US foreign bribery laws. My @transparencyuk.bsky.social colleague @duncanhames.bsky.social tells BBC News how harmful this could be for global efforts to tackle #corruption with joined up law enforcement. #FCPA #AntiCorruption #CPI2024

Wide ranging speech from UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy earlier - welcome recommitment to continue drive forward ‘campaign against Kleptocracy’. Tackling Dirty Money in the UK and globally an essential response to geopolitical uncertainty. #DirtyMoney #AntiCorruption #Corruption #Sanctions
