The Guardian says The Conservative party has been fined £17,800 for “failing to accurately report a donation and keep a proper accounting record” over the redecoration of Boris Johnson’s Downing Street flat, the Electoral Commission has said.
The commission found that the party failed to “fully report” a donation of £67,801.72, the majority of which was connected to the refurbishment of the 11 Downing Street flat where Boris Johnson lives.
The commission’s investigation found that decisions relating to the handling and recording of the donation reflected “serious failings in the party’s compliance systems”. A fine of £17,800 was levied for “failing to accurately report a donation and keep a proper accounting record”.
