The BBC are reporting that a Conservative Party spokesman has confirmed that Craig Williams and Laura Saunders will not have the support of the Conservative Party as Parliamentary Candidates at the forthcoming General Election.
The announcement came swiftly after a briefing to the BBC's Henry Zeffman.
The Conservative party spokesman said:
"As a result of ongoing internal enquiries, we have concluded that we can no longer support Craig Williams or Laura Saunders as Parliamentary Candidates at the forthcoming General Election.
"We have checked with the Gambling Commission that this decision does not compromise the investigation that they are conducting, which is rightly independent and ongoing."
