Harriet Harman said she had accepted "in good faith" a £5,000 donation which turned out to have come from a property developer under someone else's name.

Ms Harman was given the money by Janet Kidd during her successful bid to become Labour's deputy leader.

Ms Harman said she "was not aware of any funding arrangements... between David Abrahams and Janet Kidd".
