Channel 4 spent £15,000 taking MPs who blocked privatisation to BAFTAs

The MPs' Register for Financial Interests shows that after the Conservative government decided not to sell off the broadcaster, it took politicians who had backed its stance to the glamorous showbusiness event.

It comes as MPs face scrutiny over their freebies after Prime Minister Keir Starmer was found to have accepted thousands of pounds worth of gifts and hospitality and a host of other Labour politicians bagged invites to exclusive events.

The film BAFTAs, hosted at South Bank's Royal Festival Hall in February, featured Prince William, David Beckham, Dua Lipa, Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Hugh Grant, Idris Elba and Cate Blanchett. Guests enjoyed a three-course dinner where the champagne flowed, before mingling with stars on the dancefloor.
