Sunak Under Fire Over £10M Donations From Donor Accused of Racist Remarks Against Abbott
• Rishi Sunak faces calls to return £10 million in donations from Frank Hester, a Tory donor accused of making racist remarks about MP Diane Abbott • Hester allegedly said in 2019 that Abbott "should be shot" and that she "makes you want to hate all black women" • Sunak has resisted calls to return the money, saying Hester apologized and his "remorse should be accepted" • Labour leader Keir Starmer said Sunak should "hand back the £10 million" from Hester • The row was sparked by a Guardian article detailing Hester's alleged racist remarks; Hester denies criticism of Abbott was due to her gender or skin color
