Political donations & shareholders

1. Big vote last week against EnQuest on the resolution seeking authority to make political donations. It was 30% against, which is waaaay above average. But in this case there was a reason, as the company gave the Tories £8,500.

2. Latest Electoral Commission disclosures reveal that Fidelity is still funding the Tories, with another £25,000 handed over in Feb. Search for "FIL Investment" here.
