A former government minister has been challenged to return a donation from a company which the Ministry of Defence has 'serious national security concerns' over.

Sir Simon Clarke, Conservative MP for Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland, accepted a £5,000 donation from Aquind Ltd, only two days after the MoD’s concerns about the company’s plans for a proposed electricity link between England and France had been made public.
