The motion
That this House calls on the right hon. Member for Witney to reveal what percentage of individual donations to the Conservative Party have been received from people nominated for honours; notes that 80 pence out of every £1 in individual donations to the Labour Party has come from donors who have received knighthoods or peerages; and further notes that offering a place in the House of Lords as a means of fundraising for political parties is illegal under the Honours (Prevention of Abuses) Act 1925.
