| Mr Ainsworth '"for many people, it just looks odd that somebody handed a politician £5million.". But does it look more odd than donations by the Unions to the Labour Party albeit they are beginning to think it's a waste of money. 'Labour’s biggest union backer has cut its annual donation to the party by more than £500,000 in a major blow to Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership'. Here are those individuals and Unions who funded Labour's Election campaign - Biggest individual donors: Reginald Collins £350,000.00 Maqbool Ahmed £75,180.00 Richard Swann £50,000.00 Amin Hemani £50,000.00 Waheed Alli £35,000.00 Jason Stockwood £20,000.00 Robert Latham £15,000.00 Jennifer Clifton £10,000.00 Robert Latham £5,000.00 Gordon Dalyell £5,000.00 Antony Gormley £4,500.00 Martin Littler £3,000.00 Ian McLaughlin £2,500.00 and biggest Union benefactors - Unite £414,610.52 Unison £347,562.68 GMB £229,448 CWU £101,205.93 ASLEF £28,404.29 USDAW £16,827 FBU £11,725.00 CTU £11,541.79 and even PLCs (many looking to hold leverage over l'il Red Ed !? Labour Together £98,726.32 SSE PLC £22,400 Scotia Gas Networks Limited £4,400.00 PG Paper Company Limited £3,928 London Hotel Group Limited £3,750.00 Scottish and Southern Energy Power Distribution Limited £3,200.00 Invicta Public Affairs £3,000 So let's not think Reform is the only Party willing to accept corporate or quasi-corporate support. Meanwhile - 'Burnham is expected to get significant union backing and has already been given a modest £20,000 by some of them. He could get endorsements and support from Unite and Unison, which have called for Starmer’s administration to be more true to Labour values'. I assume there are rules governing Party funding and financial electoral support. Doubtless Farage and Burnham will be playing by the rules. And even Red Ange has been cleared by HMRC so she's got c.40K to spend ! |
