Ex-Tory treasurer Cruddas wins £180,000 libel damages
Former Conservative co-treasurer Peter Cruddas has won £180,000 libel damages over Sunday Times allegations about charging to meet David Cameron.
The businessman complained articles in 2012 suggested he had corruptly offered the chance to gain unfair advantage through secret meetings with the PM.
The Sunday Times said it was "dismayed" and would appeal against the judgement.
