Alongside the legal issues that do come up from time to time around this area, the key reason really is that there are just a whole lot of really practical things about how Parliament works, and government works in an election year that we know are of interest to our clients from a whole range of sectors, really, whether you're working in government or media or business, unions or NGOs, all the banks.
