Labour will not accept donations made by a property developer through intermediaries, because they were not properly declared and were illegal, Gordon Brown said on Tuesday.

Romuald Rat had been accused of seeking 300,000 pounds from The Sun for pictures of Diana slumped on the floor of the car's mangled wreckage.
French authorities had issued a summons for Rat to appear by videolink from Paris before the inquest in London into the deaths of Diana and her lover Dodi al-Fayed on August 31, 1997.
