LONDON: Boris Johnson has broken the record for the most money raised by a British politician in his bid to become prime minister. More than half of the donations to Johnson’s campaign have come from financiers and businessmen who funded the campaign to leave the European Union.
In the last two weeks, Johnson has registered 200,000 pounds ($248,400) in donations, taking the total amount he has received in the last year to 702,000 pounds, according to figures released by parliament on Wednesday. This has helped Johnson surpass the previous fundraising record set by the former foreign minister David Miliband who raised 627,000 pounds for his bid to lead the Labour Party in 2010. (REUTERS)
