Coalition parties give up will cash










The Tories and Lib Dems are to give a £520,000 bequest to the Treasury, after claims it was to be left to the nation, not to the coalition parties.


Nurse Joan Edwards left the money to “whichever government is in office… to use as they may think fit.”


It was divided up as a party donation between the coalition with the Lib Dems getting £99,423 and Tories £420,576.


But after calls from Labour and some Tory MPs for a rethink, both parties announced they would give up the cash.
