THE Tories have admitted inaccurately reporting donations from a defunct company, the political party spending watchdog has revealed.

The Electoral Commission said on Saturday that it was awaiting further information from the Conservatives on two donations from Unionist Buildings, after the party confirmed that there had been a mistake in registering the cash. 

In a letter to the watchdog last week, Labour chairwoman Anneliese Dodds said that the commission had noted two Tory donations from the company — £6,000 to the party in June 2017 and a further £4,000 to Tory MP Wendy Morton early last year — despite the firm having been dissolved in January 2017.
