Political corruption and the law in the UK, Philip A Thomas. Journal of Civil Liberties, vol 3 no 1, 1998, pp5-30. Looks at the work of the Nolan Committee and the cases of Jonathan Aitken and Neil Hamilton and concludes: "paradoxically, perhaps the one constructive service those politicians have done for their country is to make corruption a national issue which demands action."
