Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Political Parties and Elections Bill.
Political Parties and Elections Bill
I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for giving way. As he is aware, the latest figures for Labour party funding show that 80 per cent. comes from the trade unions, and we know what impact that gives them on our national life. It was Conservative Members who proposed a £50,000 cap on donations, and it is grossly unfair to suggest that there was no possibility of reaching a consensus with us. The Labour party cannot carry on with its downright corrupt situation with the trade unions and blame us for any failure.
