Caledonia update

Just to clear up the mystery of those donations tagged to the Conservative Party that I blogged about last year, I've had the email below from the Electoral Commission. Basically the Tories mucked up their admin -

Dear Mr Powdrill,

 

You contacted me last year about two donations to the Conservative Party that we published on our website PEF Online, which were reported as from Caledonia Investments PLC.

 

Both turned out to have been due to administrative errors, and the Conservative Party has now reported the donations from the correct donors:

 

International Caledonian Assets Ltd

 

The Cayzer Trust Company Ltd
