In 1997, the notorious "cash-for-questions affair" inquiry delved into allegations that sitting Members of Parliament (MPs) accepted undisclosed cash payments to pose questions in the British House of Commons on behalf of private companies. The inquiry laid bare a web of corruption that shook public trust in parliamentary integrity and sparked calls for stricter ethical standards within British politics.
