Fresh questions raised over Tory donor’s access to prime minister following November visit
Rishi Sunak was flown to Leeds by Frank Hester for a private tour of the businessman’s offices on the day after the autumn statement last year, raising questions about the access afforded to the £10m donor bankrolling the Tories’ election campaign.
Sunak’s relationship with Hester is under the spotlight after a Guardian investigation revealed on Monday that the mega-donor made comments about Diane Abbott which have been widely condemned for being racist and misogynistic.
