Labour says business ministers should recuse themselves over ‘conflict of interest’
Two ministers face calls to recuse themselves from a decision on whether a company jointly controlled by a major Conservative party donor should be allowed to build a £1.2bn cross-Channel power cable after “bankrolling the Tories”.
The Labour party is warning of “a clear conflict of interest” at the heart of the business department, and tonight called on two of its ministers to “come clean” about their links to the sponsors of the controversial power cable plans.
