Altrincham and Sale West MP Sir Graham Brady also spoke to the fake firm.
Two former Tory ministers have been caught in a sting telling a non-existent company their daily rate for consultancy is £10,000 a day. MPs Matt Hancock and Kwasi Kwarteng were caught on video requesting six-figure sums for what they would expect to be paid to advise a fake firm in South Korea.
Told by someone pretending to be an employee of the company they were considering offering between £8,000 and £12,000 per day, with the intention for him to attend six board meetings a year, Mr Kwarteng said: “OK yes, we’re not a million miles off. We can work with the numbers.” The group sold the “company” as one with aims to expand into the UK and Europe, asking any would-be advisers to attend pretend board meetings held in a mix of locations, including allegedly in South Korea. Led By Donkeys said 16 of the MPs approached were Tory, two Labour, one a Liberal Democrat and the other an independent.
Mr Hammond is seen in the video published on Saturday, but no details of what was said has been aired as yet. Led By Donkeys said Sir Gavin had turned down the opportunity to take discussions any further.
