Stuart’s failure to call out racist Hester comments “jaw-dropping”
12 Mar 2024
EMBARGO: Immediate Release
Responding to Graham Stuarts’ comments this morning on Times Radio where he refused to say Frank Hester’s alleged comments were racist and refused to say the money should be returned, Liberal Democrat Chief Whip Wendy Chamberlain MP said:
“Graham Stuart’s refusal to call out these racist comments was simply jaw-dropping.
“The Conservative Party has flat out refused to return these donations despite these comments being inexcusable. How low can you go?
“Rishi Sunak can bunker down and hide in Downing Street as long as he wants but every day he doesn’t return this money is another damning blow to the Conservative Party’s credibility.”
