Proceeding contribution from Viscount Astor (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 16 June 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Political Parties: Funding.


Political Parties: Funding

My Lords, will the Minister remind his noble friend Lord Foulkes—in a non-partisan way, of course—that the largest donor to any political party in this House was a Minister who used to sit on the Government’s Front Bench and whose name is somewhat similar to a well known high-street chain of supermarkets?
