This is yeasterday’s statement by Chris Leslie, who was Brown’s campaign manager:
“In late May I received a phone call from a man calling himself David Abrahams referring me to a woman called Janet Kidd who said that she wanted to be a donor to the campaign. I did not know who Mr Abrahams or Mrs Kidd were. I contacted Mrs Kidd, and unprompted, she sent a cheque for £5,000.” (*)
So, says Leslie, he got in touch with Mrs Kidd about making a donation, and then Mrs Kidd made a donation, unprompted. Unbelievable! And fuckin disrespectful of anybody, anybody who’ll have read the statement.
