You can have a really nice dinner for £250K with our David C. :-D :-D :-D
All these "donations" if you want to call them so, do you think any tax was paid on the millions passed from hand to hand, do you think some of it was syphoned off as well.?

George :-) :-) :-)

Nothing new in this, politicians have been wining and dining these people/donors for years

I am not saying that any are corrupt but you have to ask your self why can some of them have nothing when they first come in to politics and they say they are not well paid but in no time at all seem to be very wealthy

With out naming any one i can remember a MP who borrowed money for a deposit 30k from a friend to buy a house and with in 3 years bought another house for over 1 million pounds, some thing not right their? and this sort of thing is not out of the ordinary

The sooner these political parties cut all contact with wealthy donors the better,
If people want to support a party they should do so with out having any contact by way of cosy dinners and dodgy meetings

and that goes for all political parties

Oh who cares anymore about Politicians. And as for call me Dave he should ignore everybody and flash his smile like old Tony used to do. I could almost feel sorry for the poor soul - almost.

I wonder how much of those so called party donations disappeared into back pockets, after all, they are all a bunch of untrustworthy money grasping low life.
