Tories expel MEP over misuse of funds

Tories expel MEP over misuse of funds

An MEP who channelled more than £500,000 of allowances into a business run by his wife and daughter has been expelled from the Conservative Party. Den Dover, who used to be the party's chief whip in Europe, was dismissed after David Cameron learnt that a European Parliament investigation had found major discrepancies in his use of allowances.

The Independent revealed in the summer that the MEP had paid hundreds of thousands of pounds to a family-owned business over seven years. Money was then sent to his local party.

Mr Dover maintained that he had done nothing wrong in paying the money to the firm run by his wife, Kathleen, and daughter, Amanda. The Conservatives admitted last night that a European Parliament investigation into Mr Dover's use of allowances had discovered "unaccountable expenditure" of more than £500,000.
