Has Harman Broken The Law?
She says she hasn’t, claiming that she and her campaign team “acted at all times within both the letter and the spirit of the law.” Yet her leader, her Cabinet colleague and her husband have all said it is illegal to take undeclared donations from a third party. And that is precisely what Harriet did. Whether or not she or her campaign team knew that doesn’t matter - ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it.
Since the scandal has now been referred to the police by the Electoral Commission we can hope that the truth will out.
Well, we can hope anyway.
