Just making hiding wealth a criminal offence isn’t enough, in my view. A politician should never once have had a well-paid job at a corporation.

I mean yes, that sort of corruption also needs addressing.
But it isn't fair to exclude people from well-paying jobs just because they used to serve the public at one time. There's plenty of legitimate reasons why one might move on to a well-paying job, that doesn't involve favours being passed around.

I mean, my idea is moreso centered around making it harder for people in public offices to ever have been corrupted by privatisation.
