I think it is time to comment upon this growing disaster, certain aspects of "new" Labour seem to be moving back towards alternative methods of party funding after they were defeated a while back, they see this whole series of events as a good excuse to revive them. A welcome consequence for them as it would destroy the trade union link, while still giving their business friends some ability to support the party.

I support John McDonnell's proposals to limit donations from individuals to £1000 per year. That would cut out individual businessmen from donating huge sums of money.

Everybody in the party caught up even slightly in this crisis should stop using it as an excuse to push through their neo-liberal agenda to destroy Labour's link with the working class and offer their resignation. Their dodgy donations should not be used by them to push their own agenda.
