Tory MPs accused of breaching rules to funnel taxpayer cash into secret hard-Brexit lobby group

Accusations
The European Research Group (ERG) is led by arch-Brexiteer and Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg. It is described by openDemocracy as “a ruthlessly organised faction within the Conservative party, funded by a mix of taxpayer cash and dark money”.
