Intro

MPs are allowed to donate however much they wish of their private money to whomever they chose.

In 2018, as per The Mirror, when Rishi Sunak was just an MP - the family donated more than 3 million dollars to a private tech college in California - previously attended by his wife.

Fast forward to 2023 where a primary school in his constituency has spent nearly a year fundraising to find 10k to buy school kids computers.

We talk to a mum who's been at the coalface of the bake sales and is wondering why she had to work so hard to drum up a fraction of Sunak's donation.

We also look at the narratives -loud and soft - coming out of Ukraine and ask if the military counter-offensive is finally underway.
