Integrity investigation finds 25% of Europe’s MEPs were involved in a scandal

In December 2022, police found €900,000 in alleged bribe cash stuffed in bags at the EU Parliament’s Vice President Eva Kaili’s home. How could corruption of such scale happen at the heart of the EU? Was this just one isolated incident or the tip of the iceberg?

Data collected by The Journal, Noteworthy and other European media partners reveals 3% of MEPs have been convicted by a court.

The most serious cases related to 45 corruption incidents and 44 events relating to fraud and theft.
