Donelan libel costs: Donelan must pay this money back now

15 Apr 2024

EMBARGO: Immediate release

Responding to £34,000 of taxpayers money being spent on Michele Donelan's libel costs, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper MP said: 

"Michelle Donelan must pay this money back now. People's taxes should not be used to bail out disgraced Conservative Ministers.

"This saga stinks of a rotten cover up, with Donelan at its core.

"People in Chippenham will be furious their MP is wasting taxpayers money like this, whilst their health services crumble. At the next election, they will get the chance to show her the door by voting for the Liberal Democrats."
