🔴 Guess who is funding Sunak's Tories? The same super-wealthy donors who put Liz Truss in Downing Street
Major new investigation 🧵:
- Bosses at right-wing 'Tufton Street' think tanks have given £35 million+ to the Tories
- IEA, Policy Exchange etc don't declare their donors. They're registered 'non partisan' charities. But their trustees have given *500 times more to Tories than Labour + LD
- Tufton Street think tanks had >150 meetings with Tory ministers since 2020
- Media loves them. They're in British newspapers >15 times per day
