In Britain there is a legal limit to the amount you can spend on your campaign, so the ground is fairly level funds wise. Also, if you are arguing for something because a donor asked you to do so, you have to declare it. (EG "I feel the house should liberalise the laws concerning the sale of alcohol and also reduce level of taxes on alcohol. I'm proposing this because a beer brewer paid me to say so." Although I doubt they would put it exactly like that!)
