Tony Buckingham donation
In 2010, Crouch secured a 5,000 donation to Hart from mercenary boss Tony Buckingham, according to This is South Wales:
- Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire Tory MP Simon Hart said the donation had come through the constituency's former chairman Stephen Crouch, who was not available for comment.
- The MP said he did not know Mr Buckingham personally but the party's safeguards were a sufficient enough check on donors.[2]
