Labour MP demands Boris Johnson answer corruption allegations
The Prime Minister Boris Johnson

PRIME Minister Boris Johnson is under pressure to explain allegations that he failed to declare potential conflicts of interest, after a newspaper claimed that a friend of his received over £100,000 in public money.

The allegation appeared on the front of the Sunday Times today, but the paper’s other page-one story — about the resignation of a Jeremy Corbyn aide — received far more coverage.

Jon Trickett, Labour’s shadow Cabinet Office minister, said Mr Johnson should provide full disclosure on the corruption allegations.
