The Tories accepted £146,750 of donations in November and December from Lubov Chernukhin, the wife of one of Putin’s former ministers, eight months after the Skripal poisonings. She donated another £100,000 to the party in March.
The Tories also received £150,000 from Ann Said in October. She's the wife of Syrian-born former arms dealer Wafic Said, a family friend of Bashar Assad, who has been banned from donating because he is tax resident in Monaco.
Meanwhile Sherry Funeral Directors has donated £5,000 to Theresa May's Conservative association in Maidenhead.
