Episode notes

This week we’re in conversation with Carl Dolan, the outgoing director at the EU office for anti-corruption organisation Transparency International.

Dolan talks about links between populism and corruption at the European Parliament and in Hungary.

We also meet civil society activist Julia Krzyszkowska.

She and data geek Xavier Dutoit struggled — and succeeded — in creating an online tool called MEP Watch. Their goal is helping campaign groups track voting by members of the European Parliament.
