Alliance: Alliance Party

alliance: Labour received just 521,909, mainly made of funds from unions, and the Liberal Democrats only 509,998, according to The Guardian. The Green party received 100,000 and Northern Ireland's Alliance party banked 15,000. Peter Hargreaves, a businessman and co-founder of one of the country's largest financial services firms, gave the sum despite previously labelling the Tory leader, Boris Johnson, a buffoon . Hargreaves, who backed leaving Brussels without a deal, donated 3.2m to the Leave.EU campaign founded by Arron Banks but admitted earlier this year he had totally given up on Brexit and was in despair . The donation emerged in the latest set of figures released by the Electoral Commission, which showed that the Conservatives banked nearly 3.6m in donations in just a week to 26 November almost seven times as much as the Labour party. In total, parties reported donations worth 4.7m between 20-26 November, the third week of general election campaigning since the dissolution of parliament. Last month, Labour said it had received 1m in small donations in the first 10 days since the election was called, with the average amount totalling 26. The figures do not include donations under 7,500, meaning the totals do not account for smaller sums given to parties. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
