Party funding

No wonder there's muttering about state funding...

“If the Conservative party had a single donor called UnitePLC that provided 40% of its donations, provided the CEO of the Conservative party, had its Head of PR setup websites for the Conservatives, hired people like Derek McPoison to run smear campaigns, unfairly influenced the process whereby many of its UnitePLC employees become Conservative MPs through donations and UnitePLC block votes in CLPs….. we would all be outraged at the infiltration of the Conservative party by a single company. But if we just changed the word Conservative to Labour in the above and deleted “plc” we arrive at the state of the Labour party.”

That's lifted whole from PB.com who lifted it from a comment at LabourHome.

Gordon's old mate Charlie Whelan is The Man, of course...

  1. "Derek McPoison" sounds like the result of an unhealthy genetic experiment. Damian Draper would have been a much safer bet.
