dippyhippy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Very, very interesting! I've done this search for our very own Jesse Norman, basically because I am a very nosy person. I make no apologies for this, being naturally nosy can have reap it's own rewards!. Why - in the column for private donors - does it show that none other than Harry Bramer, has put his hand in his pocket and paid £2,700.00 ?? Is this even allowed?? If it is, it shouldn't be......
DanGuerche Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Now - I am a Jesse fan - not the Tory party - but Jesse - but I have no idea WHY ON EARTH - Chile are giving him money? Anyone KNOW? Anyone have any Theories?
dippyhippy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Makes for bizarre reading, doesn't it Dan???
dippyhippy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Blimey! There's a second page of private donors..... and guess what? Harry appears again...... another £3000.00 Quite staggering! Then there's the man with a lot of clout at Tesco... John Hoerner. He coughed up £25,270.80....then a further £3,735.80!
Denise Lloyd Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Posted May 27, 2015 I think the Country Weddings one was Bramer's prior to his split with his girlfriend
dippyhippy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 I did wonder that exact same thing, Denise!!
dippyhippy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 With regard to the "Chile" link..... Jesse Norman visited Chile, on a book plugging tour....." The Great Society " (Irony, anyone????) Though quite why a country with such a reputation for Human Rights violations would be on the list of must visit places on this literary tour,is anybody's guess. Hay on Wye? Yes. Chile? Err. No.
twowheelsgood Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Bill Wiggin received £160,538.32. The majority of it was from offshore Apex Fund Services Holdings, presumably acting as honest broker and conveniently hiding the reality. Jesse Norman received a staggering £279,006.01. It doesn't say over what period, presumably their length of time in Parliament.
dippyhippy Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Incredible. It's about three grand more than George Osborne!
Cambo Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 With regard to the "Chile" link..... Jesse Norman visited Chile, on a book plugging tour....." The Great Society " (Irony, anyone????) Though quite why a country with such a reputation for Human Rights violations would be on the list of must visit places on this literary tour,is anybody's guess. Hay on Wye? Yes. Chile? Err. No. Your forgetting dippy that the Tory party have had a very good relationship with chile going back to the days of thatcher & Pinochet…the Falklands war plus chile & Argentina are not exactly best buddies?!
Cambo Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 It would seem that the midlands industrial council & united & Cecil club are both set up so Tory donors can donate money through them & remain anonymous?
Chris Chappell Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 One of my proudest claims is that having worked in Chile when I was younger and because a girlfriend and her policeman brother were left wing activists, I was not acceptable to the Pinochet fascists. Never did find out what happened to girlfriend but she and her brother were in the national football stadium for some time! The national stadium was used as a concentration camp, and yes, there were certain British ex forces personnel working as mercenaries there! Long time ago, no point on dwelling on these things, but I will never forget that the Tories and Thatcher worshipped Pinochet.
Denise Lloyd Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Posted May 27, 2015 No wonder the Jess could afford to put so many Con boards up all over the countryside. What happens to the money apart from paying electioning costs?
