The West Midlands Breakfast Club, funded mainly by property developers, donated £130,000 to Labour, raising concerns about political finance transparency and accountability.
Stephen Goldstein, the club’s coordinator, previously claimed its donors were a diverse group from the community, but revelations show a significant reliance on four major property firms.
The Observer's investigation highlights the club's questionable funding practices, as it emerged that its primary financial support comes from developers linked to significant local projects.
Critics of the situation emphasize the need for stricter regulations in political financing, particularly concerning unincorporated associations like the WMBC that avoid scrutiny.
