Politics
Criticism of Cameron
On the 26 April 2015, 11 days before the 2015 General Election, Hall told newspapers that David Cameron was showing a 'curious lack of energy and belief' and called on him to 'unleash visceral passion and belief in his vision of the future' and 'get down and dirty' if he is to remain prime minister.[2]
He later apologised for the comments saying: 'I regret making those comments and apologise to all for this unconstructive intervention.
'Just to be clear. 1. I am an absolute nobody in politics. 2. I want the Conservative party to win the election and think it has a chance of doing so. 3. The government has done a good job in very difficult circumstances. 4. David Cameron is a better prime minister than I think Boris is likely to be if [he] ever becomes prime minister. 5. I will shut up for now.'[3]
Donations
Hall donated £30,000 on 25 May 2016 to Vote Leave, the group that successfully campaigned for British withdrawal from the European Union in the referendum of June 2016. [4]
