This is truly shocking.

In France, the maximum donation is 7500 euros.

JCB chair Lord Bamford

Bamford, who retired as a Conservative peer last year, took over the business started by his father in 1975. His family is one of the richest in Britain, with wealth estimated at £9.5bn by the Sunday Times.

Not even a “self-made” shit-stain.
