David Cameron’s constituency party has admitted receiving £7,000 in donations that, er…, it wasn’t allowed to receive. The money has now been forfeited.

You couldn’t make it up!
Is this the curse of the electoral register change again? If you get donations by standing order you need to re-register the donation each year showing the new electoral register number… otherwise the donation is forfait for that year even though the donor is actually on the register. Some LibDem local party somewhere will be caught out this year unless we have an unprecedentedly efficient set of treasurers returns.
so what were the details, where did the £7000 come from that was illegal
Can I be the first ‘troll’ to mention Michael Brown? Paid it back yet?
Think you might be interested in THIS story (found on Iain Dale’s site) http://icwales.icnetwork.co.uk/news/cardiff-news/2007/12/14/liberal-democrat-in-party-donation-cover-up-claim-91466-20249816/. Looks like you’re in a spot of bother, too.
I wonder if this gets through comment moderation? (-:
Why are we not banging our Joint Leadership success?
I think the whole matter is a set up and we shouldnt get too involved.
embarrassing story about donations announced on the one day gaurenteed to see political covereage of only one main political party – I can’t think why waited until they announced that.
