Alan J Donnelly

Alan Donnelly is the former leader of the Labour group in the European Parliament.

According to Donnelly he had wanted to set up a lobbying firmm for some time:

I'd always wanted to set up my own company, that was another big motivation to leave politics, and eventually I decided to bite the bullet and set up Sovereign Strategy. I'd been on the receiving end of lobbying for 11 years, I'd seen the good approaches and the bad ones, and over time I'd developed my own ideas about how I'd do it.^[1]

His assessment of tghe various approaches to lobbying seem to have resulted in the adoption of strategies almost designed to court controversy.
