Opposition writes to committee on standards in public life over claims he blurred business and political interests
Labour is intensifying its demands for an inquiry into the activities of the Conservative party’s co-chair after claims that he ran a secretive club for top donors and blurred his business and political interests.
Pressure has been growing on Ben Elliot after Tory donor Mohamed Amersi claimed the party co-chair had benefited from introducing him to the Prince of Wales in 2013. The introduction came after Amersi paid thousands to Quintessentially, Elliot’s luxury concierge company. Elliot has said the introduction was all about raising money for charity.
