Aye,now that it's been made public that he has been receiving such donations.
It begs the question whether it's the first time it's happened and if so why ?

It begs the question whether it's the first time it's happened and why should it?

I thought it was public knowledge that this was not the first time. eg See today's Private Eye which is not published online

The statement makes it sounds like it's been a regular thing, bit like "the Prince will no longer be eating kippers at breakfast".
