    I don’t think you’ve read this. They are donations directly to a campaign fund. Are you drawing equivalence to accepting clothes for a spouse or a holiday in New York ?

    For the winter fuel payment, abstention or having the whip removed, as is nearly always case in British parliamentary politics .

      I did read it, I just think it demonstrates the same problem as Stramer’s freebies, rich people pushing money around in policies to buy influence.
