MP Rupert Lowe investigated by standards watchdog

MP Rupert Lowe is under investigation by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards for purportedly failing to declare donations to fund his "Rape Gang Inquiry," totaling over £600,000. Despite starting the inquiry before a government-led probe, Lowe is required to disclose donations per parliamentary regulations. The investigation focuses on whether he abided by the 28-day declaration rule for donations exceeding £1,500, with the Commissioner scrutinizing Lowe's adherence to MP guidelines. The inquiry asserts that all mandatory declarations will be fulfilled within the stipulated timeframe for transparency.
