More Labour Donors unearthed

The Electoral Commission will publish more labour donors for 2006 this week, so who migh they be? Peter Hain and the BBC believe they could be -

"Media reports said investors Nigel Doughty, Sir Ronald Cohen and Jonathan Aisbitt each donated £250,000 during the final quarter of 2006."

Cohen is well known as Gordon's financial backer and has been ritisised in the past for tax avoidance, Jon Aisbitt gpt a big payout from Goldman sachs and is now on the board of a hedge fund and an company Ocean Rig that has an oil rig in Angola - very New Labour? Perhaps hedge funds will now avoid Gordon's tax squees? Money well spent!
