Wirral Conservatives hit by “debt collector” smear

"I wish her good luck in the future, but look forward to seeing Wallasey being represented by a Wallaseyan."

Ian Lewis, agent for Wallasey Conservatives, said: "Once again, Wallasey Labour Party is trying to cling on to power by smearing their opponents.

"People in Wallasey want their MP and the Labour Party to focus on the issues, not resort to this childish name calling.

"All donations to Wallasey Conservatives are recorded in accordance with the law and we are very grateful to all our donors, regardless of the amount they give.

"We use donations from our supporters to counter the effects of the £19,973 Ms Eagle has received from the taxpayer-funded ‘Communications Allowance’ and the £23,000 her local party has accepted from trade unions and others."

"We have been open with our accounts and we are opening up the way in which people can get involved with us and how we select our candidates. Perhaps Wallasey Labour Party would like to tell us why they have never published their accounts."
