Political Parties and Elections Bill

I wonder whether the Secretary of State has considered not only article 11, which he mentioned, but article 10, which guarantees freedom of political expression. If a British citizen entitled to vote in a general election is not also entitled to donate to the party of his choice, that raises serious questions about whether he is being denied the opportunity freely to express and implement his political opinions.
