Fresh on the heels of the news that Conservative MEP Caroline Jackson is thinking of quitting the Conservative Party comes this news via The News of the World:
The Tories’ top donor today told the News of the World how he has defected to the eurosceptic UK Independence Party.
Spread-betting millionaire Stuart Wheeler has written a cheque for £100,000 to UKIP and said he will be voting for them in the June Euro elections …
In 2000, Mr Wheeler gave the Tories £5m – their biggest single donation.
He has continued to back them since, but has become increasingly angry at leader David Cameron.
He now says he has serious doubts that Mr Cameron will carry out his promise to hold a referendum on the EU Constitutional Treaty.
