‘Campaign financing and election spending was last regulated in 2000. Yet both major parties continue to rely on a handful of large donors granting them privileged access to power, and undermining public trust in political institutions. Jonathan Hopkin and Stuart Wilks-Heeg argue the next government needs to reform the current regulation on party financing, even if it will be against its short-term interest.’ https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandpolicy/party-campaign-financing-needs-reform/ With no respect for those who study politics, the political parties have dug a hole which threatens to bury them and us in it. #PublicTrust #FascistCults #StopFascism #EndTheEcocideEmpire #EthicalRights #InterestsDemocracy #TheFederation

Facts Matter: The Foundation of Truth and Integrity
By, Cliff Potts, WPS News, Editor-in-Chief
Baybay City | January 11, 2025
Op-EdIn an era where information flows ceaselessly through digital channels, untangling the web of data to discern fact from fiction is increasingly challenging. Yet, facts remain the bedrock upon which credible and actionable knowledge is built. They are the hard, tangible evidence that informs understanding and guides informed decision-making.
Facts are unwavering truths, the steadfast pillars of certainty that defy our personal biases and interpretations. They ignite the flames of scientific inquiry and underpin the very essence of our legal systems, acting as the fair and impartial judges in our debates and the bedrock upon which consensus is built. From the echoes of historical events etched in a multitude of converging records to the precise data gleaned from meticulously controlled scientific measurements, facts rise above the fickle nature of subjective perception, boldly asserting their undeniable significance.
The unyielding nature of facts is what bestows upon them their formidable power. They stand firmly against the winds of political pressures and the ever-shifting tides of culture. When facts shine bright and remain unchallenged, they become a shared beacon that allows for the evaluation of arguments and ideologies. In both the court of public opinion and the realm of legal proceedings, it is the unwavering presence of hard evidence—the pure, untainted facts—that secures outcomes firmly rooted in the fabric of reality.
While facts are the foundational components, truth is the narrative constructed from these building blocks. Truth is the accurate telling of facts, but it involves selection, interpretation, and presentation. When truth is well-tended, it seeks to depict a faithful representation of reality that aligns with the known facts. This distinction is crucial because the process of telling the truth involves a human element, which introduces both the potential for enlightenment and the peril of bias.
In the realm of journalism, the sacred duty of truth-telling ignites a fervent passion to distill overwhelming volumes of information into a compelling narrative that embodies the very essence of reality. Herein lies the vital importance of integrity. A journalist’s unwavering dedication to truth demands an intense scrutiny of the facts at hand, courageously rejecting the seductive pull of sensationalism that may dazzle the audience but ultimately warps the truth.
At WPS.News, a radiant beacon illuminating the vast ocean of media outlets, our unwavering dedication to meticulous fact-finding and fearless truth-telling drives us forward. This profound commitment to authenticity is the very essence of our mission. Regardless of our size, WPS.News passionately strives to gather, scrutinize, and present information grounded in verifiable facts, empowering our audience to access news that is not only factual but also inherently trustworthy.

Truth matters because it interprets these facts for meaningful understanding and action. At WPS.News, this commitment to factual accuracy and truthful reporting is not just a guiding principle—it is our unwavering pledge.
