About this Event

With the Scottish Parliament marking 25 years, it is timely to discuss the public’s view of everyone in public life such as politicians, the media and the justice system when it comes to perceptions of honesty, integrity and ethics. Join the panel to discuss the lessons to be learned from history in light of the Victorian’s radical changes initiated in their reforms of standards in public life, and find out how political, social, and cultural changes can bolster the perceived decline of standards in the 21st century.   


In partnership with the University of Stirling.
