Was he misusing the funds to buy spare whips?

[Mark Menzies "strongly" disputes the claims,
but has had the whip removed amid allegations that he misused party funds and abused his position. The MP called an elderly party volunteer saying he was locked in a flat and needed Ł5,000 as a matter of "life and death", the Times reports. An eventual sum of Ł6,500 was paid to secure his release, the paper says. The money is reported to have come out of local Conservative party funds and the party is carrying out an an investigation. According to the Times, Mr Menzies, who represents Fylde, in Lancashire, phoned his 78-year-old former campaign manager at 03:15 last December to ask for Ł5,000.] [The Times also reports Mr Menzies used a total of Ł14,000 - in several payments stretching back four years - from campaign funds to pay his personal medical bills. A source close to Mr Menzies disputed the claim that it had been the MP's suggestion to use campaign funds to pay his medical bills, the paper reported, but the Times says the money was not repaid. The Conservative Party was made aware of the allegations in January, when Mr Menzies' former campaign manager reported what had happened to the chief whip, Simon Hart. BBC News has contacted Mr Menzies for comment and he is yet to respond.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68841840 Last edited by arista; 18-04-2024 at 10:44 AM. |

It's more concerning that the first lady he asked for money, called the Tory whip and told him to sort it out and report it to the police and then nothing happened. She said she didn't want someone like that representing the town in parliament and she was a tory party member/enthusiast
