Labour Lawyers organised Donorgate?

According to this shocking article in the Guardian today Labour Lawyers and officials were involved in setting up David Abrahams round about route of donating £650,000 pounds to Labour in clear violation of the spirit of the recently enacted Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000.

Later advice has of course shown that this practice is illegal.

We know that previous General Secretaries of the Labour party have denied all knowledge which does beg the question, who did not only know, but ordered this deception?

Just when you think this might blow over, it gets worse!

I wonder how far this actually runs? Brown must be kicking himself over the non-election. Talk about a winter of disontent.

Cox Who knows how far thsi runs. It is certainly way beyond credibility that it was one man.

Yes Gordon must be kicking himself but then he never had the courage.
