Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng attended a private champagne reception hours after delivering his mini-Budget, mixing with hedge fund managers who may have profiteered from the crash, according to a report in the Sunday Times.
The evening gathering on September 23 took place in Chelsea at the home of Andrew Law, a financier and senior party donor where Mr Kwarteng is said to have shared 'insights' over planned expenditure cuts.
Mr Law has an estimated £750million fortune and since 2004 has donated £3.6million to the Tories.
