Tory Devon Police and Crime commissioner candidate caught up in expenses scandal

It appears that Tory Police and Crime Commissioner candidate, Alison Hernandez, was the election agent for new Torbay MP Kevin Foster. Mr Foster is one of a number of Tory MPs being investigated for potentially/allegedly breaching strict candidate expenses rules by using a Tory national “battle bus” in a local area but not charging it as a local election expense.

The Daily Mirror has estimated that the bus should be costed at around £2000 per day.
