Minister refuses to say whether Tories received extra £5m
Transport Secretary Mark Harper declines to say whether Frank Hester has donated an extra five million pounds to the Conservative Party, refusing to comment on "hypothetical" questions.
Mr Hester allegedly said in 2019 that Diane Abbott, Britain's longest-serving black MP, made him "want to hate all black women" and that she "should be shot".
Reports emerged this week that Mr Hester may have offered £5 million more, which has not yet been published by the Electoral Commission.
