Great information site created by the Guardian, showing visually the party donations information for the first week of the election. The data was released by the electoral commission, so now we can see which party has the biggest budgets for campaigning and who are the biggest donors.
"The Tories received 33 donations between April 6 - the day the general election 2010 was announced - and April 12. Labour received seven donations, totalling just over £783,000. The Liberal Democrats received just two, totalling £20,000."-The Guardian
However, it will be next weeks data that will show the effect of the TV debates. The site has a excel sheet of information with a 'Individual Donations Detailed' that's perfect if you want to double check the donors records.
