Nottinghamshire MPs say donations do not go 'into their pockets' as nearly £250,000 given since last election

Nottingham Forest, McDonald's and JCB are among the organisations which have given thousands of pounds worth of gifts and donations linked to Nottinghamshire's MPs. Figures show that since the last General Election in December 2019, Nottinghamshire MPs have collectively been linked with gifts and donations worth almost a quarter of a million pounds.

The figures primarily come from the register of MPs' financial interests, where MPs set out what other income, hospitality or donations they have received, or what other roles they hold outside Parliament. Nottinghamshire Live has previously reported on the extra income that the county's MPs received during 2022.

But as well as extra income, analysis of the register by Sky News and Tortoise has focused on the gifts and donations that have been given to MPs. Since the December 2019 election, Nottinghamshire's 11 MPs have collectively been linked with around £246,000 worth of gifts and donations.
