We promote the Bell Principals as a basis for ethical behaviour by elected Independent politicians and representatives, and these nine principals are:
1. To abide wholeheartedly by the spirit and letter of the Seven Principals of Public Life set out by Lord Nolan in 1995: selflessness, integrity, objectivity, accountability, openness, honesty and leadership.
2. To be guided by considered evidence, our real-world experience and expertise, our constituencies and our consciences.
3. To be free from the control of any political party, pressure group or whip
4. To be non-discriminatory, ethical and committed to pluralism
5. To make decisions transparently and openly at every stage and level of the political process, enabling people to see how decisions are made and the evidence on which they are based.
6. To listen, consulting our communities constantly and innovatively
7. To treat political opponents with courtesy and respect, challenging them when we believe they are wrong, and agreeing with them when we believe they are right.
8. To resist abuses of power and patronage and promote democracy at every level.
9. To claim expenses, salaries, and compensation openly so the public can judge the value for money of our activities.
