In this constituency there is a three way fight between the main Parties. It is only fair for voters to expect openness from the candidates, particularly in the wake of the MPs’ expenses scandal.

After your MP is elected, whether or not they choose transparency, they will be under public scrutiny.

The well-established website They Work for You which keeps track of how MPs vote on key issues has invited candidates to answer national and local questions to help people decide how to place their vote. At the time of posting this, the Tory and Green candidates in Truro and Falmouth have not done so. Why not?

Public trust in politicians is a huge issue at this election. But only Charlotte MacKenzie for Labour and the Tory candidate in this constituency have so far made and published a voluntary declaration of interests. This isn’t a legal requirement for candidates, but it is for MPs.

Surely those wanting to be elected must recognise voters will make up their own minds if they fail to publish this information using the common format.
