Police Confirm Investigation
Peter Watt could face up to 12 months for breaching the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000 alone. There are various potential offences to consider. More here.Roy Kennedy was the Director of Finance and Compliance when the illegal funding operation was under way. Labour sources have told Guido that he should have known, it is inconceivable that the third biggest funder of the Labour party could have gone unchecked. He was responsible for compliance with the law. The question is when did he first know about it?
He will be an early target of the police investigation.

OK, so there will be a police enquiry.But that's as far as it will go.
Smoke and Mirrors...but no charges
If it's any comfort for young Master Watts, I understand someone called Blair has an unused pot of KY Jelly that he subsequently didn't need, going cheap.
12 months ain't that bad - be out by June 2008!!!
Nice fresh-faced lad like him!
He will be popular - nice big lugs and a tight mouth.
Is Blair son of Blair going to provide one of his officers to investigate this?
I can smell the cover up from here.
Notice that Harriet Hampster said that she and her team had acted in good faith over the donations to her deputy leadership campaign.
However, we all can speak Nulabspeak now, and we would like to ask her whether she and her team acted in good faith over the donation of £5,000 to her personal account AFTER she had been elected.
Naughty,naughty Harriet!
Interesting that the Prophet Teddy Bear of Islam has now been bumped to the top spot on Al Beeb.
Presumably since Watt is now facing porridge, Mendlesson is suing the Standard and Dromey is calming down Harriet, there is no one to present their 2006 accounts which have still not been filed.
Or is it Labour's customary disregard for due process?
Should give Dimbleby a good excuse to clamp down on any probing questions tonight.
Oh dear, Labour fawning for the Muslim vote while being bankrolled by the Jews and there's Tony running to the Papists..now we know why 400 years ago Parliament decided that this would be a Protestant Nation (still is due to the Bill of Rights)where the only higher power was good old fashioned money but hey the Constitution and the Law means nothing these days.
Dodgy Donations they're being called! Surely they're illegal donations?
Watts:
"As far as I am aware officer, I was the only one aware of Mr. Abrahams."
Perhaps this is a good time to extent detention without charge to 56 days!
This has been a slightly disappointing week for the Labour Party, hasn't it?
Will the threat of real porridge loosen his tongue Who will he drag down with him? nulab dont do honour so this should be sooooo funny.
How does that song go again......oh yeah "THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER" and they just keep getting better.
Will there ever be a day when something goes right ? i cant remember one lately.
Maybe the following link: http://curly15.wordpress.com/2007/11/28/abrahams-labour-and-the-north-east will be useful in informing the current debate on Mr Abrahams, property development matters and the speed (fast-tracking) in which his planning applications were approved.
Prescott seems to have had his chubby fingers in this one as well.
Guido - they all knew. They are now engaged in the pointing fingers at each other and very soon, I expect a cataclysmic explosion.
Personally I think the Labour Party are genuinely finished in the short and medium term.
Now I see why Gordo supported Ian Blair over the de Menezes shooting.
Oh dear, naughty Harriet isn't going quietly..
R5L Drive said that the Met have asked the Durham police to look into the Durham Green approval.
HH saying it was Gordo's fundraiser who told her who to ask for a donation
Things....... can only get better.....
Its always money with labour whats the problem? cant make enough in the real world eh little bit too tough for ya? people expecting competence?.
wheres DES today ? on medication after reading about his heros clay feet.
POBH at 6.32 is picking away at an aspect of the saga that needs greater scrutiny.
If you donate £5000 to Harman's campaign fund before the election takes place you are, in effect, saying "I think you'd be a good deputy leader and I'd like to improve your chances."
But if you bung in five grand TWO WEEKS AFTER THE ELECTION you are in effect saying "Now you are deputy leader of the governing party I'd like to do you a favour'.
It seems to me there is a significant difference between these two positions.
Sir Michael White is brown-nosing on C4 as we speak...
Diane Abbot just claimed on ch4 news that this is all Blair's fault, and that Gordon needs to "draw a line under it" Blaming all of this on Blair is amazing! Strange that at the start of the news, Snow said they couldn't get any Labour MPs to speak... and then suddenly, Abbot is there...it seems the rats aren't infact jumping off the ship...hopefully they will all drown when it goes down...
Okay, Nipper, get two watts, Profit Abraham, his DIY man and the secretary and let's call it a day. We're looking at 2 more years funding off this lot so let's get it done sharpish. Oh, and if you're going to accidentally shoot anyone while you're nosing around Primrose Hill make sure it's Mandelson not Mendelsohn.
Andrew Dismore was on Radio 4 today complaining about antisemitism. For example, people are mentioning utterly irrelevant things like Labour Friends of Israel. Watch out, Guido!
Two Labour leaders in a row questioned by the police over fraudulant activity.
Notice a pattern anyone?
I don't know if anyone else has noticed this but it strikes me that Mr Abraham is a bit like Woody Allen's Zelig after watching channel four news; always around at major political and historical events: elusive, significant in his anonymity, identityless yet with multiple identities, humourous yet faintly weird. Zelig-Abraham, Abraham-Zelig; he's always smiling though, except when he's behind Blair; can't blame him for that I suppose...strange smiling faces in crowds at once irrelevant, suddenly bold and in the spotlight. Who is this man? What has he really been up to, and for what purpose? Makes you think...
Guido... have you told Mrs Fawkes yet that there's no chance of the usual weekend off and a trip to Tesco/Sainsburys etc with the kids.........
Breaking news
A yougov poll in tomorrow's Telegraph has been descibed as "one of the most devastating I've ever seen" by polling expert Prof. Anthony King.
Looks like Labour's vote has gone into meltdown. Have they dropped into third place behind the Lib Dems?
Surely not fourth behind the BNP!!
They keep saying this isn't like cash for peerages.
No it's far worse, and there is a paper trail.
And instead of a few of blairs inner circle being involved, this spreads throughout the party, to a lot of people who loathe each other.
This is going to get very messy.
I suggest we all make ourselves comfortable for the next few months and enjoy the entertanment.
I bet Yates is looking forward to it.
What is it that coppers say when a villain gets off, be seeing you.
Seems he will be seeing them sooner than he thought
This is going to run and run.
W.W.
What is it with these people that they are now indulging in a love fest with the honourable person crap.
Honourable people do the right thing at all times. Honourable people check that what they are doing is above board. And honourable people don't pass the buck on to other people when something goes wrong.
Honourable people. These people wouldn't get honour if it bit them on the arse.
shug:
Yes, but they'd get _an_ honour whilst not getting honour, wouldn't they?
I was once bitten on the arse by a Right Honourable...
Any figures on the Telegraph poll?
"Andrew Dismore was on Radio 4 today complaining about antisemitism."
I remember this cunt. Made his name as an ambulance chasing lawyer for one of the big trade union backed law firms. Wasn't a great pleasure to hear him on the radio going home from work. Or see his horrible boat on the telly when I got home. Now there's a face I'd never get tired of punching.
Incidentally Shug-Niggurath, shouldn't your first name be Shub?
"We have decided to refer matters to the police for further investigation. "We hope to do that tomorrow.''
But which police force? It doesn't have to be the Met. How about the City Police? They seem to have a roving brief and are pretty good at getting up in the morning.
Oh this is just too much fun! Why are they so good to us?
Guido, you say Watts faces 12 months but surely that would depend on how many counts of said offence are considered. If they treated each of the "donors" and each of the donations as seperate offences this could mount up to make some serious jail time if he were to be proven guilty.
About the only 'honour' this lot are going to get is Your Honour... at the Old Bailey.
not sure former Blair aide Ben Wegg-prosser has caught the zeitgeist with the title of his latest blog entry " peter watt - a great man"!

And they have specialist bloodhounds with vast experience & expertise with financial paper trails. It's what they do. So it won't be them, then.
Mr Brown, I'm sure you're aware of the existence of a Lax Credit system in this country?
(strained chuckling)
When an ordinary British citizen says "I know nothing" (about fraudulent Lax Credit claims being made using their ID), are you also aware that it may take that individual one, two, six months or more to clear their name and have other benefits re-instated?
(silence)
Who's reporting on the yougov poll? Given that they were 13 points down the day before the whole funding scandal blew up I can only guess how bad it's going to be. Probably about 17 points behind at a guess with the libdregs in second place for the first time since pantsdown was leader...
anonymous 7:42 PM
Oooohhhh! She doesn't like Blair, does she now?!!!!
So who's been posting writs then? Guido, just the other day you were gloating about your supposed immunity to the British libel laws with your status as a sod-muncher and magical far-away servers...
It seems to me Labour**** are making him their patsy.
another fine mess 7:53 PM
Two Labour leaders in a row questioned by the police over fraudulant activity.
Notice a pattern anyone?
They're both evil thieving lying murdering cunts?
No dynamite from YouGov: Con 43, Lab 32. Same as last week; different poll; newspaper needing headlines.
Con 43%
Lab 32%
Lib 14%
And worse to come next week, I expect.
Brown - 90 days, retiring at the request of his doting beard, quoting "ill heaqlth" or possibly something to do with a dodgy ticker (bit overworked, I know) or possibly liver, due to overconsumption of nose-peelings. The Tuscan Has Spoken.
Daily Telegraph poll:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/11/30/npoll130.xml
All these nasty corrosive comments about our beloved leaders. Don't you realise that we have some of the best politicians money can buy.
Poll result now on Iain

Most of the poll done on Monday. So I guess things will get much much worse!
Incredibly BBC reporting police still to decide whether to investigate. All depends on how long Brown will guarantee Blair's job. Truly we are blessed.
Robinson is 'confident' only Watt has broke the law. That's Nick Robinson LLB (O.U.)
Phyllis Starkey MP finding it hard to believe why Chris Leslie would want to harm HH. Bless!!
Teddy bear story still running a close second.
I blame it all on the universal suffrage.
Knowing where the original cash comes from is what matters. Is there a MR Big and if so who is he and where did his cash come from? If it is fully taxed, legal and comes from a UK registered voter. This could all just be a boring case of rampantly corrupt sticky fingers.
However if not these are matters of national security at the highest level.
You cant donate money to any foreign countries political party. You can not accept money from a foreign power for the same very important reason. Its potential treason.
The sort of treason that certainly got Charlie 1 a much shorter hair cut then he hoped for.
"In fact if my hunch is right, which it nearly always is."
Charlie Boy 1, may turn out now not to be the last or the least treacherous nightmare of Scottish messianic damnation to have blessed us with their rule.
We are deeply concerned that Pirate Comedians Bush and Brown are damaging the industry and that are large proportion of our membership could be laid off.
Question Time Comedy Special at 10:35 and, with Mo the Bear the only topical subject that doesn't reflect the total incompetence & mendacity of the current regime, expect to witness superhuman efforts by the Dimblebore to avoid Caroline Flint's ritual humiliation.
Rumour has it that the BBC are scouring the streets of York for global warming obsessives & anti-smoking fanatics & finding no takers.
Not one to miss.
I would like to propose to the house that Gordon Brown does not in any manner (be that emotional, physical, or spiritual) resemble Mr Bean the complete twat.
"AYE"s: 1
"NO"s: 645
All this will make us despise the scum ruling us all the more.With their wealth,large houses and legions of tax eating hangers on they are stealing our work and our lives to feed their own.And they want our freedom as well.Not liberty ,that is a poncy french word,but our freedom.Then they will have everything.And even then they will not be satisfied.When we are serfs again they may be content.
Mitch 9:47
Saying something when a Tory 11 point lead (the biggest since Mrs T's heydays) is not considerd dynamite.
Labour are up to their necks in shit, and sinking, and watching them all, they seems to know it.

Anonymong @ 9.40,
What are you on about?
Hain in the soup, forgot about a £5000 donation from Mendelsohn. This is almost as good as election night!
The idea that he forgot to register the donation is just daft. He registered all the others.
The only difference is that the others didn't expect to be appointed Gordon Brown's fundraiser.
Musn't grumble . . .

Err, no. The CCC is located in the city, consequently, judges are referred to as M'lud.
So can we expect to see Permatan Hain added to the Electoral Commission's evidence to the Met? He broke the law. If I 'forget' to send in my VAT/Tax return due to an 'administrative error', I get fined. So should Hain. None of this bollox about 'sorry' and 'now declared'.
He won't get banged up for it, more's the pity, but he deserves the criminal record.
Kevin Maguire, a canny c**t spoils my great joke by pointing out (correctly) that CCC judges are addressed as M'Lud and not Your Honour.
As you can tell from my name I don't care much if it's M'Lud or Your Honour so long as they pay me afterwards.
Regards
Mary Jane Rotten-Crotch.
In Bqanking they have Compliance dept's too. Even a cashier can go to jail for minimum of 5 years simply for just knowing money is being laundered (if it can be proved of course!).
Watt (and by the looks of it a lot of other Nu Liebour apparatchiks) have been complicit in money laundering. End of story. Big fine or gaol.
Clients of a colleague when asked to produce ID docs as per anti ML requirements asked why they should have to do all this nonsense if the Labour party doesn't? In colleagues case he is subject to the kangaroo court of the FSA and will simply lose everything if he doesn't assume the position and box tick as required. And as we can see from this mendacious shitty junta that rules us the AML system is an expensive pointless exercise. Crooks will always get round it - for a time.
Never mind the illegal party funding, this cunt Kennedy needs prison just for that suit. Was there a sale at Oxfam or something? I mean, he does have a hand at the end of his arm doesn't he?
10:29 PM
These figures are almost certainly incorrect Mr Brown - because it is highly unlikely that every member of parliament would have bothered to turn up and vote. Although of course...you never know...
2:50PM
piss off
10:29PM
There is also the possibility that a few of your own party may have abstained.
shoot ya fooking gob man
Is everything all right Prime Minister?
JUST FUCK OFF U BLOODY BORING CUNT!!!
What bloody use is a vote of no confidence? None of the shitty-arse licking NuLiebor MP's are going to vote against with nearly 2years' worth of salary, pension, expenses etc left. That's about £1 million EACH!
NuLiebor's 'Minister for Culture' (sic) said on Boulton's programme this morning that NuLiebor had given Abraham's money back.
Is this ANOTHER NuLiebor lie?
