Apology

guardianWe were wrong to state that Michael Ancram MP claimed thousands of pounds to treat lichen and moss on a stately home from the House of Commons allowance scheme, when only £400 was spent on moss removal. We apologise for this error and accept that his allowance claim was made in relation to his constituency home in accordance with the scheme rules (Lord Ashcroft: It’s his party, 23 February, page 32).
