tory sleaze

The Downing Street scandal, previously dubbed "Wallpapergate", has escalated after the prime minister's private WhatsApp messages were revealed.
The deputy prime minister claimed he had "total faith" in Boris Johnson.
"You may be the prime minister of this country – but in this house, I’m in charge!”
Oliver Dowden said the prime minister's acknowledgement that mistakes were made is "effectively the same thing as an apology".
It is the closest the prime minister has come to an apology over the sleaze scandal engulfing Westminster.
It comes amid accusations that the agreement did not go far enough and the issue of climate change has been kicked down the road.
HuffPost UK takes you through fresh allegations that will make uncomfortable reading for both major parties when they open this morning's papers.
One MP hit back saying it was a “bizarre Tory smear campaign” while another said it was an attempt to divert attention from the “Tory corruption scandal".
