The UK Conservative Party has called for an investigation into the prime minister’s chief of staff Morgan McSweeney, and the role he may have played in how a Labour think tank handled political donations years ago.

“New information has come to light that raises the question of whether a criminal offence has been committed,” the Tories wrote in a letter addressed to the Electoral Commission, the independent body that oversees elections and regulates political finance in the UK.
