Hain admits more donations errors
Peter Hain
Mr Hain was one of six deputy leadership contenders
Cabinet minister Peter Hain has said more donations to his Labour deputy leadership campaign "were not registered as they should have been".

Mr Hain has already admitted one £5,000 donation was not registered, blaming an "administrative error".

Now he is reviewing all donations to his campaign and apologised for the "extremely regrettable" events.

Harriet Harman, who won the deputy leadership, has been criticised over a disguised donation for her campaign.

This is extremely regrettable and I apologise
Peter Hain

She said she did not know the money, donated under the name Janet Kidd, was actually from property developer David Abrahams who is at the centre of a wider row over donations to the Labour Party.

Police are investigating more than £650,000 he donated to the party over four years, under the names of four associates.
