Theresa May was last night urged to hand back almost £300,000 in Tory party donations received from a property tycoon who is profiting from an apartment block rife with prostitution in one of the wealthiest areas of London.
More than 100 prostitutes are reportedly working from the Chelsea Cloisters block which is owned by multi-millionaire Christopher Moran, 70, who has attended many events with members of the Royal Family and is worth more than £404 million.
The block of 670 apartments – where Mr Moran has an office – earns him millions of pounds in rent and service charges every year.
Undercover reporters from The Sunday Times were able to make 40 bookings with prostitutes using 23 apartments in the building – 15 of them in flats rented directly from Mr Moran's company Realreed.

Men who have visited the building are said to have referred to it as having 'ten floors of whores'.
One escort agency, Diva Escorts, boasted that it had 100 women available at the premises on a single night. The women charge between £100 and £300.
Mr Moran, 316th in the Sunday Times Rich List, has previously donated £290,000 to the Tories on a personal and company basis.
Just over £140,000 came directly from his company which owns and rents out rooms in the block
Last night, leading anti-prostitution campaigner Julie Bindel said: 'These are horrific revelations. Many, if not most, of the women being abused in prostitution in London will have been trafficked into the country and are working against their will.
This is a vast sum of dirty money that makes a mockery of Theresa May's campaigning against sex slavery.
'The Tory party should hand over the money immediately to be used to convict pimps and traffickers, to support trafficked women and to help them find a new life outside the horrors of the sex trade.'
The Prime Minister has pledged to eradicate human trafficking in the UK by 2030.

Labour MP Gavin Shuker, who chaired an all-party Parliamentary group which wrote a report on the sex trade last summer, said: 'Theresa May must now give that money to charities that assist victims of human trafficking and use her powers to change the law and to tackle demand.'
There is no suggestion that Mr Moran has any involvement with the prostitution. In a statement through his lawyers, he made it clear that his management took a 'zero-tolerance' approach to prostitution.
But Greg Hands, the Tory MP for Chelsea and Fulham, said a constituent had alerted the building's management about prostitution there – but that staff appeared not to have done anything.
Mr Hands then reported the matter to the police.
Mr Moran, chairman of Co-operation Ireland, a charity that campaigns for peace, is a well-known Tory donor who masterminded the £30million sale of the party's former Smith Square headquarters in 2007.
He has held fundraisers for the party at his 15th Century 30- bedroom home Crosby Hall on the banks of the River Thames and hosted the Queen there two years ago at a private function.
Describing himself as 'astronomically wealthy,' Mr Moran made money on the insurance market Lloyd's of London and on the stock market – adding to his fortune in property in recent years. He also owns the 40,000-acre Glenfiddich estate in the Scottish Highlands.
A property and finance tycoon, he had made his first million by the age of 21. But he has had a chequered career.
In 1982 he became the first person to be thrown out of Lloyd's of London for 'discreditable acts' and was censured by the London Stock Exchange in 1986.
He also paid a £1.15million settlement after being accused of insider trading on the New York Stock Exchange in 1992, which he denied.
Mr Moran's lawyers 'categorically denied' he had acquiesced with or tolerated any prostitution in Chelsea Cloisters and said he had not profited from its proceeds.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
