Re: Tony Blair

Blair is a wealthy man, he may not want full disclosure of that.

Re: Tony Blair

Disclosure of outside earnings, if the source comes from a foreign country.

Re: Tony Blair

If some individuals whose sole contribution to the country is giving large sums to the Tory Party can be ennobled, Blair deserves a knighthood.

Sir Keir Starmer is seeking support from wealthy donors because the unions might not be as supportive in future.

Not being bought off by any political party allows him the freedom to speak out.
