Money talks
The Sunday Times reports that the Labour party is facing a multi-million-pound shortfall in its election campaign fund amid disillusionment in some trade unions and anger among Jewish donors over its allegedly anti-semitic advertisements.
Lord Levy, the party’s chief fundraiser and a leading figure in the Jewish community, has warned that important New Labour donors are “disturbed” at the party’s recent use of anti-semitic images in posters.
