Emma Barnett taking down this Tory MP over Boris Johnson is why she’s the hero we all need right now
You’ll know all about Boris Johnson’s late-night row by now, and you’ll know all about the photo that ’emerged’ (AKA was ‘planted) in the papers a day or two in a bid to put the whole thing to bed.
But lots of questions remain, like when exactly was that photo taken? So Emma Barnett thought she’d get to the bottom of it all with Boris Johnson backer, Tory MP Andrew Mitchell.
“It’s about a planted photo into a newspaper, and we need to now what tricks are going on and what the veracity of that is”
