+++ BBC NEWS HAIN "THERE ARE MORE DONATIONS" +++
As broken by Guido here earlier. The obvious questions are
- Why didn't he 'fess up last week during his last admitted bout of amnesia?
- Why wait until Guido chases his fundraiser?
UPDATE 20.30 : For the record Guido made his first phone-call to Huw Roberts at 12.57 today. Guido called repeatedly his office, mobile and home numbers. Huw returned the call around 15.30. The story was up on the blog by 16.07, Joe Carberry, Hain's SpAd, told Guido at around 16.30 that the story was untrue.
Hain released a self-serving statement this evening, just in time for the 6pm news shows, saying he went to see the Electoral Commission "this afternoon". Guido would like to know if this was arranged in advance or was it impromptu? Funny coincidence of timing.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bright orage-faced cunt.
I'm lovin' it!
Wondering who is on that "New Years Honours List" ...
That will prove an interesting revelation in January once disclosed..
FFS it says 0 comments I open the message box put Pink Floyd Album on (windows media player) and type a message and then two bastards already on here...do you people have no life waiting for Guido to spill more dirt on Labour..its not a Punch & Judy show so piss off and leave me hitting the refresh button to see if Guido is around and working or lounging around doing sweet FA. Grrr..oh yes "Ha Ha Hain just go already"
3 comments god damnit F**K Off
Confession is good for the soul. I don't see why such a fuss was made about Blair converting to catholicism when all this flagellation seems to be the order of the day in the cabinet... perhaps they all belong to Opus Dei?
Nice to see this conjunction on the BBC website:

string the perma tanned creosoted cunt up on the nearest lampost.
not for this just cos he is an annoying cunt.
Yep anon 6:41
I have no life only booze and blogging.
All in all I'm just a brick in the wall.
Off down the offy now - may we live in interesting times!
Oh yes!
As Battery Sergeant Major Williams would say,
"Oh dear, how sad, never mind."
Peter Hain RIP
Failure to register a donation is far more serious than using a proxy donor. It's not a difficult task to ensure all cash incomes have been properly recorded.
Unless Hain and Alexander go it looks like one rule for party officials and civil servants and another for elected MPs. Shouldn't these people be held to a higher standard?
We're approaching vote of no confidence territory. The government may not be defeated, but I think there is a debate worth having.
I'm the daddy now.
As a connoisseur of the witty rejoinder, I would like to say "Fuck off, you orange cunt!"
Breaking News
Channel 4 news: Paul Gray who resigned as head of HMRC over the missing discs scandal is already back at work full time with Gus O'Donnell in the Cabinet Office.
What happened to useless bitch Patricia Hewitt? All gone quiet. Has she fucked off back to Australia with her pension paid for by British tax payers ? If so, couldn't this corrupt, lying, orange cunt, take her lead and sod off back to darkest Africa?
And Channel 4 News have just reported that Paul Gray is now working for Gus O'Donnell in the Cabinet Office overseeing "Civil Service Skills" - 13 days after he resigned as head of HMRC.
Hain's career has just been killed stone dead on channel 4 news.
Is this the president of the Young Liberals who did not smoke pot at the party conferences at Scarborough in 1975 and Llandudno the following year - or is it someone else?
The conversation must have gone something like this:
Gray: Gordo, dreadfully sorry old chap, most horrendous fuckup at HMRC, lost a few million records...
Gordo: Never mind Paulie, that's quite ok, we've just got an even bigger donations fuckup on the way so we'll bury all the bad news. Just fall on your biro and we'll have you back quicker than you can say Peter Mandelson....
Gray: Oh how kind, I thought for one moment I would really end up resigning and unemployable like all those other poor sods out there....
Nuff said. Arrogant cunts.
Having ye seen what that lying bastard Hain is saying in his statement on the BBC!
It sounds like he's just 'uncovered the error'.........no mention of having it hounded out of him by 'ham radio' bloggers. He is truely shameless.
Anyway I'm sure with a tan and a manicure like that he'll get plenty of opportunity to reflect on the error of his ways on B wing. He'll have an arsehole like the Tyne Tunnel!
The Hunting Ban ridiculed in the appeal court on Friday and that cunt Peter Hain fucked on Monday. Can't remember getting a round in for Santa but Christmas truely has come early!
South African, Peter Hain, has been a Lib Dem, a Communist and now Neo=Labour.
Hain = anti British scumbag!
buh bye!
Oh now I know where to find Paul Gray :) Here is a letter to HMRC over a nonsensical tax demand :)
Enjoy
Thank you for your recent correspondence and I apologise for the delay in replying, however, given the contents of the letter I was convinced this had originated from some distant land such as Nigeria, as it bore all the hallmarks of an Advanced Fee Fraud, given that the HMRC are now world renowned for their reputation for misplacing confidential information I am sure you can understand my concerns.
To the matter at hand namely the rather outlandish tax demand and the interest payments, which I and a group of friends attempted to calculate, putting the Inland Revenue somewhere between the local “Provi” Lender and Big Mick the locally renowned Loan Shark, I would like to state that I never started my own business, indeed I received so little information from the Tax Office in the first place, I cannot even recollect what I was going to set up in business to do let alone if I ever picked a name to use.
As you will no doubt be aware such foolish ideas as displaying entrepreneurship in England is frowned upon, indeed given the degree of bureaucracy and feeble amount of support available I would say it is totally unwelcome in today’s’ Britain, instead I continue to utilise the PAYE system through my employer, which though meagre does contribute to the £135 million payout of Child Benefit to EU citizens whose children reside abroad, or perhaps it is used nationally to support the 2.7 million claimants of Incapacity Benefit or make some contribution towards the upkeep of the 5 million households whose only income is from our generous welfare system.
Perhaps the HMRC and subsequently the Treasury could use my pittance towards paying EDS, Fujitsu and others the ever increasing costs of the NHS IT Network, or use it in part towards the £1.9Bn in overpayments on the Tax Credit system or the many millions lost to fraud with the Individual Learning Account fiasco, dare I say to be innovative it could go towards the losses from the National Air Traffic Control system or even HMRC’s own NIRS2 system, perhaps it may malfunction and give me back some of the money that my continued employment contributes towards the approximately 6.5 million public sector workers and their generous pension schemes, it could of course be used in supporting irresponsible borrowers and lenders such as with Northern Rock or I dread to think it has been used towards Legal Fees in the “bury the SFO investigation into the Al Yamamah deal with Saudi Arabia”.
While I could go on I think the point of my letter has been made, namely that I do not owe such a preposterous amount and should HMRC wish to continue with this I would have no hesitation in mounting a vigorous defence, indeed I would be extremely pleased to welcome former Chief of HMRC Mr. Paul Gray and other Government officials within HMRC and other departments to the County Court where I am sure throngs of media, representatives of the Conservative Party, Liberal Democrats, not to mention the Taxpayers Alliance as well as the public at large, would relish the opportunity to hear first-hand the cumulative amount in the billions this incompetent administration has squandered, which I shall request, not under Freedom of Information Act legislation but as evidentiary material.
Indeed given that “work avoidance” has become a national sport perhaps I should terminate my employment, live on benefits and claim legal aid while doing so.
Thank you and best regards,

Unfortunately Hewitt is still around, as illustrated by her pathetic planted question at recent PMQs about the EU being the only organisation in the world who can save the planet.
Blessed are the peacemakers....
Blair must be laughing like a drain.
It is time this arrogant bunch of self-serving, arrogant, lying, criminals were banged up.
Every time they are found out they say they are sorry and they won't do it again. Hain, Harman, Mandleson, Mendlesson, Alexander, Alexander, Watt, Uncle Tom Cobley and all, your time is up.
Perhaps we should have ID cards - it would then be easy for Yates of the Yard to see whose fingers have been on the paperwork?
Give us an election you bankrupt bunch of bastards!
If you painted Hain's eyebrows green, he'd be a dead ringer for one of Willy Wonka's Oompah-Loompahs.
Let's hope the creosoted fucker takes a few colleagues down with him.
How much more of this can Scotch Broon take? He must be past breaking point now.
Surely it's time to subject GB to killer blows at PMQs this week. Go for the jugular.
Vote of no confidence and an election?
Come on, isn't there a single MP with some guts?
Let joy be unconfined throughout the land! Farewell, Satsuma-Head!
Well done, Guido.
Can you get anything on Mandelson? He's been begging for it since the Hinduja scandal. Brussels must be awash with dodgy dealings.
The New Labour "Project" is finito. Too bad about the damage it did; that can never be repaired.
Oh, slight problem, if we do bang the buggers up, there are no prison places to put them.
Never mind, let't shoot them instead.
Perhaps the South African intelligence services were on to something when they tried to frame him for armed robbery - would have done us a favour having the smug orange twerp sent down for a few years.

rog the answer is no!
in fat if Brown ever leaves he will get a standing ovation from the one party with three names, headed by a sycopantic Cameron!
Let's all just hope and pray that something sticks to this clown and he goes down.
Has anyone satisfactorily explained how it came to pass that he was allowed to stay in this country once his own had gained the freedom he was so keen for it to obtain?
Just had a look at the loans given to Labour registered at the electoral commission. A number of these (admittedly to minor apparatchiks) are charged at a nil rate of interest with an indefinate term of payment. How could these conceivably be commercial terms? Surely more offences have been committed here.
Hain should have been hanged for treason when he dug up a cricket pitch on the morning of a Test Match in the seventies.
I can't remember who was Prime Minister at the time, but both Heath and Wilson were also traitors so it made no difference - he got away with it.
Peter Hain put in the fix
While Mr Bean performed his tricks without a sound
Now wee Ms A will demonstrate
A poor excuse she'll undertake on shaky ground
Having been some years in preparation
A splendid time is guaranteed for all
And this e'en Mr Bean is topping the bill.
Gary "Stoke" Elsby is really putting some stick around on " 3 Line Whip". He's frit to come here!
Simple maths tells me that if this twat spent £ 70k that's about £ 233 per MP for the majority vote that he never got!
Assuming the rest of the contending turds spent that much each potential vote will have cost in excess of £ 1,000.
If you apply that figure to what is a more important election, the General Election, then the cost would be about £ 40billion (40 million voters x £ 1,000) - that is precisely why they do not deserve a penny from us plebs.
They will have to build more prisons just to hold the labour party in.
ahh donergate the scandal that just keeps giving.We still have PMQs to look forward to where does cameron start eh? he could plonk the papers down on the despatch box look at brown and start laughing(like everyone else).
Is it just me that thinks that if the MSM had been breaking this story, rather than (essentially) Guido doing all the running (with a start from the MoS) this whole dismal saga would be getting the media prominence it deserves, rather than being buried under whatever fuckwitted bogus faux-scientific health report the Times has got its hands on that morning?
Sorry about my earlier post - try "Boulton & Co." (Bloody 2 Ltr. bottle of red wine)
Mr Fawkes,you claimed an exclusive with Mrs Alexander's thank you letter to Green.You also claim a first in breaking that hain accepted other illegal donations.Don't the other media have a duty to give you attribution for these stories? ALSO these successes of yours are newsworthy in themselves.As such they should be reported as stories on their own merit.
perma-tanned chap like him will be real popular inside...about time they started getting some tips from Aitken about how to stay anal-retentive...
Much as I dislike the Orange one,he did not dig up the wicket.That was the family of cockney villain George Davies at Headingly in 1974.
I wonder if the dole inspectors will be after him for having undeclared income?
What a hypocritical scumbag.
couldn't Yates look into a proper crime for a change - after all an unsolved bank robbery is an unsolved bank robbery and with all those advances in DNA testing.....
Gary, welcome back!

Sounds like just what Brown ordered - an alibi!
Yes, Yes, Yes, but can anyone help me with an answer as to why the orange asylum seeker was allowed to stay here, once it was perfectly safe for him to go back home?
hes like the concierge for the house of horrors , to much grinning and patronising for me , my guess is hes quite used to forgetting about donations sees them more of a tip.
dont think tips are taxable are they?
Anon 7.22 Bags I the machine gun!
tips are taxable my friend and if you forget what you were given HMRC very kindly thinks up a figure that you SHOULD have got!
Then they lose your records and you get shafted by an identity-thief!

Imagine if the Labour leadership election had been contested. Everyone who was running for anything got dragged into this.
In all this cess-pit of merde, David should be careful of what image he wishes to project to the media. The public will accept Tom Brown, but not Flashman. He should present a critical but not an over pugilistic contest in the House. In the current state of play his best stategem is to just place on record the number of times the Government has now said sorry in the past two weeks. Mr. Browns ministers will bow their heads on the front bench and mutter between themselves,(perhaps "in good faith")we deserve this.
I would post further but an appointment in Witney threatens.
Some suggestions for Labour MP's
1 In the unlikely event there are any decent Labour ministers, resign. Now. It might provoke a vote of no confidence.
2 If you're a Labour backbencher with a defensible majority, abstain or better support the motion. You might get back in next time.
3 If you're a marginal, tough. Your fucked
3 Reconcile yourselves to a parliament in opposition a opportunity to rebuild your party and a possibility of another chance at government in five years.
4 Failing the above, accept that the good will go down with the bad in the next long three years and that the Labour Party will be history.
5 Ignore all of the above and make this voter extremely happy.
All sorts of things are vanishing.

Chocolate Teapots Commissioner’s Office
CTCO
Currently the Data Protection Register is unavailable due to maintenance work
Following the inconvenient suggestion that the First Lord of the Treasury might be responsible for the data cock-up in HMRC, it has been decided to take the online register of data controllers down for maintenance. Telephone enquiries may be dealt with, as that way there’s no chance of anything awkward being discovered during on-line searching.
Helpdesk operatives must be particularly careful not to give out any contact details worth a damn if they face a persistent caller, or the slightest clue of the next search to perform. The Management realizes that helpdesk operatives have always been very careful to comply with the Data Protection Act in this respect, but they may have inadvertently thought that as HMRC is a public body paid for by the public, that they had some kind of right to know who was controlling their data. As if.
Please remind the public of how we at CTCO operate and why they should pay us:
Promoting public access to official information and protecting your personal information
It is on the new logo to remind you, and we’ve just paid a fortune to have all the notepaper reprinted so we are lumbered with it for a while (see link above). Do NOT get this crossed-up as: “promoting public access to your personal information”. That was a misprint.
The principal purpose of having notification and the public register is transparency and openness. It is a basic principle of data protection that the public should know (or should be able to find out) who is carrying out the processing of personal information as well as other details about the processing (such as for what reason it is being carried out).
Don’t take this too literally; what people should know and what they are going to be able to find out after the records have been properly maintained is a different thing. Transparency is what voters have to us - not us to them.
Further updates will be issued on edible post-it notes.
When one of Tricky Dickie's lot was questioned as to why they decided to indulge in eavesdropping and money laundering to win the election, his response was "It never occurred to us not to. We thought everybody was doing it."
And it seems NuLab thinks that way too.
Next: a Part Political Broadcast in which an unbalanced PM tells the Great British Public "Your Premier is not a crook. There'll be no whitewash in Whitehall."
Yeah.
Then we'll have the Peoples Tribunals.

Yes, I got two events confused. Hain was prime mover behind the 'Stop the Tour' campaign in 1970.
FOCUS ON WENDY ALEXANDER - SHE IS THE ONE WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO THROW IN THE TOWEL. HAIN IS TOO SHAMELESS TO GIVE A FUCK.
For our non Welsh speaking Minister. The Welsh for RESIGN is
Fuck off
According to Joey Jones Sky News, Leslie actually spoke to Janet Kidd to get her to cough up some dosh for Harriet. What was the rest of that conversation? one wonders. Did it not come up that she would have to check with the owner of the cash?
Well it looks like everyones favourite Orange man has now turned into the Green man.
" ... the [Labour] party is now facing new allegations that it may have received an illicit payment.
George Crawford, a Newcastle-based lawyer, went to the police amid claims that his name may have been used to illicitly donate money to the party.
He is demanding an investigation after a man of the same name was registered as giving Labour £36,000 in 2004. Mr Crawford believes he may have been used as a secret conduit by Mr Abrahams to donate money to Labour.
The lawyer suspects that the money was given in his name and has now reported the matter to the police as suspected identity theft by someone trying to conceal their donations. Northumbria Police said they would be forwarding the complaint to Scotland Yard."

P.S. Told you so
dont forget folks that Peter Hain is one of the cunts behind the fascist free-speech supressing "United Against Fascism" group.
http://www.uaf.org.uk/
boy would i love to see him go down.
that bunch of odious cunts certainly dont subscribe to Voltaire's adage of
"i disagree with what you have to say, but i will fight to death for your right to say it"
Cameron is forcing tomorrows parliamentary debate. The subject: Party donation.
If the money was not declared, where did it go?

All the f-ing and c-ing on here is tedious. I gave up reading after the first few posts.
Not big, not clever.
If what you say is dull (and generally it is) sticking a swear-word in doesn't make it any less dull.
So, grow up.
Guido - you forgot to mention that Huw Roberts is director of the Royal Mail in Wales.
Is it really acceptable for a public servant to be so far up Hain's arse he can count his teeth?

'Stop the Tour', digging up a test wicket...
In my courts I saw no point in making such trifling distinctions. In this case, transportation to The Cape of Good Hope is fitting and just, and who cares whether he dug up a cricket pitch or a rugby pitch?
Huw Roberts used to work for Ron Badger Davies. He is neighbour and friend of Rhodri morgan and he was also the BBC Wales's Director of Communications before deciding to become a post man. Typical member of the Welsh political elite-useless to man or beast.
Hain's always had a hatred of the police. They should take the chance to get their own back.
While they're checking his wallet, could they take a quick look at his enthusiasm for vote rigging, and election fraud as well. Police time is valuable. We could have two investigations of the price of one.
Newsnight leading on Hain - well done Guido
The real tragedy of this is that, probably, none of them will pay the price for their own misdeeds and will most likely end up being shunted in the Lords with a nice peerage and fat payoff like the usual bunch of useless cunts from New Labour.

Fuck off you cunt...or was that too predictable? Okay then, fuck off you snot gobbling cunt...better?
Hain is corrupt. He is going to jail. Denham on Newsnight vehemently denying he is not corrupt...they lady doth protest too much...
Hain - I am in power. I make laws. People must obey my laws, or go to gaol.
If I break my own laws, that's because I didn't understand what I meant, or cannot remember anything.

Unfortunately, he is entitled to live in this country as his grandparents were born here.
I'd like to echo Guido's earlier point: I am sick and tired of these fuckwits referring to the law as "rules". Denham was at it on Newsnight, talking about how "the rules were not followed" - it's calling BREAKING THE LAW you twat.
If you are hiding behind anonymous and spouting that free speech is OK, as long as we all bow down to politicians, because they know better than we do, and know what we want, because they and YOU are our betters, they Fuck Off you Cunts!!!
I may have had more than a few drinkies tonight, but you shower of Cunts are on a hiding to nothing!
Get Ya snouts out of the money and smell reality. You and your Ilk are Fucked, will always be Fucked and are an absolute disgrace.
Fuck Off and die somewhere!
I feel soooo much better now - goodnight all - especially Guido.
Hain has form for playing fast and lose with the facts. He was very heavily criticised last November by a high court judge over the way he went about the appointment of a victims commissioner. Hain was sucking up to Paisley and just went about appointing Paisleys nominee without regard to the others. The High Court found against him - he was close to contempt of court. Always amazed this did not come out then, or during the 2ic elections
read a bit more here
http://sluggerotoole.com/index.php/weblog/comments/hain-motivated-by-an-improper-political-purpose-in-commissioners-appointmen/
What are laws for if you don't intend to obey them?
Denham showed no humility tonight in the face of Wark's questioning.
I think is it now inevitable that some or all of these Ministers & Labour Party Execs wil get a criminal conviction & they will then HAVE to resign. It is almost too late for GB to separate himself from them - so he will go too.
About Harperson's £5000 from Kidd. Wouldn't that be funny if it turned out that it was the self same cheque that Gordo didn't cash and they were just distributing the donated cash among themselves...
Brown if you sack fascist Hain now and banish him from the Labour party forever we may ease off the pressure just a little bit!
sounds like a good deal to me - who needs the lying orange one anyway?
Yay, the Orange One is marmalade. On Brown toast.
PS Glad somone was there with a camera when Hain discovered Guido had pissed in his plonk....
You are too modest Guido. You published his £ 88k deputy leadership election budget some months ago.
Methinks that there are quite a number of donors to these Nulab twats, who do not want to be demonised like David Abrahams and are insisting that Phain and his ilk regularise the registration of their election funding .
You are showing up the so called quality papers and the Brown Broadcasting Corporation for the lap dogs they are , buying into these cheap tarts.
Did Mendelsohn force Phain into registering the £5000.00 contribution to avoid being Abrahamised? Why were the other donations not registered with Mendelsohn's donation?.
Guido, THANK YOU!
I'm beginning to think this one:
1. Hain fundraises for his deputy campaign;
2. Registers money as he spends it so that;
3. He can use anything not registered as donations for the election campaign.
4. Gorgon calls off the election.
Ah, the special orange one doesn't take the heat too well - he squealed like a stuck pig when the boys from the Banwen Miners Hunt got him run to ground in his constituency house. Wanted plod to call in the SAS ! Plod suggested he try talking to them, them being constituents, and him being a man of the people and all that !
Normally your self congratulation irritates me - but not today. Good work fella
Well done guido!
You really are back on form!
Can anyone thrown any light on a 'Regulated Donee' called Progress Ltd. which has received £ 957,173.16 since 2001 from the likes of Jon Mendelsohn, Lord Sainsbury, Pfizer, Network Rail Infrastructure Ltd, Pharmacia Ltd and Sir Frank Lowe? What is its relationship to Labour and why should Network Rail be donating to it? Why do two Drug companies seem to like it so much?

Imagine my disappointment when I visited the progress site and found nothing on the ethics of book keeping or political donations. My dismay was greater when I found little on breaking rules not laws.
Anyone know if
1 David Abrahams has been repaid his £670,000.00 plus by Rocking Gordo, and
2 Ms Harperson has repaid the 5,000 donation.

Sounds right to me. Thanks very much.
tartwatch - please don't help reinforce the lie, even unwittingly.
The law is quite clear, if this is an impermissable donation IT CANNOT BE REPAID, despite what all the NuLab fuckwits are saying. IT IS FORFEIT (so eventually the Treasury gets it anyway)
All this talk about repaying by the criminal classes is not based on their ignorance. It is spin to try and trivialise what they have done "Oops sorry we've made a mistake (or actual one of our lowly minions have) we'll give it back" sounds much more comforting than "We've broken the law and will have to pay the fine which is to give up the cash and face possible imprisonment too"
Not entirely clear from Network Rail 2007 Accounts if Progress had received anything.
There doesn't seem to be a detailed breakdown of charitable donations - unless it is tucked away in the Notes to the Accounts and the search facility has overlooked them.
Anon 11.28,
My reading of The Act is this: The money would stand a chance of being forfeit if the donor is impermissible or unidentifiable.(Note: donor, not the donation.)
Neither appears to be the case. At the very least the donations in the names of Kidd, Ruddick etc could be returned to them, or direct to Abrahams. Abrahams himself must be a permissible donor as he donated to Hilary Benn's deputy campaign.
Even if an offence has been committed in the making and in the accepting of the undeclared agent donations, that doesn't appear to make the donations themselves impermissible.(As the act only cares about permissibility with respect to the donor.) Might be enough to consider them as proceeds of crime though...
