It came after the Prime Minister finally removed support from Craig Williams' candidacy in the Welsh seat of Montgomeryshire and Glyndwr two weeks after Mr Williams admitted having a "flutter" on the election date.
Mr Williams, right, is currently under investigation by the Gambling Commission, along with four other Tory politicians and officials.
During a campaign visit yesterday the Tory leader was repeatedly asked whether he had confided in Mr Williams ahead of his surprise announcement of a July election.
The PM swerved the question, saying: "I've been clear about this. I'm furious to have learnt about these allegations."
