The public evidence does not support the claim. The Electoral Commission says donations to registered non-party campaigners are only covered when they are given towards spending on regulated campaign activity; money for an organisation’s general purposes is not covered. The Charity Commission then said HOPE Unlimited proved its funds were not used to produce or circulate political leaflets to Makerfield voters, and that its funds had been used appropriately for charitable purposes. Civil Society also reported that Hope Not Hate Limited’s accounts showed grants from HOPE Unlimited, but that accounting fact alone does not make them reportable electoral donations. On the available public record, there is no basis to say these payments should have been registered under Electoral Commission guidance.
