@iealondon @CharityComms Not a Charity lawyer but it's hard to square the IEA saying: "Labour's manifesto is to borrow... hundreds and hundreds of billions of pounds... throwing all kinds of fiscal responsibility out the window" with the absolute ban on Charities "opposing a particular political party."
@iealondon @CharityComms Hard to imagine much will happen, though. The Charity Commission is chaired by Tina Stowell, a former Tory Minister, who was forced in against the unanimous wishes of the @CommonsCMS. politicshome.com/news/uk/govern…
