Conservative MP forced to deny Rupert Murdoch 'owns the Tory party' after Boris Johnson withdraws

Tory party' after Boris Johnson withdraws from PM race

A Tory MP has just been forced to deny Rupert Murdoch was behind today’s shock pulling out by Boris Johnson.

It comes after Michael Gove’s wife sent a leaked e-mail yesterday warning the newspaper mogul “instinctively dislikes Boris”.


She claimed he and Daily Mail editor Paul Dacre would be more likely to back a Boris candidacy if he was backed up by Mr Gove.

Mr Gove then declared he was standing this morning - followed promptly by Boris pulling out.

why do these bastards live to be 100?
Sorry if that offends anyone.
My dad was a good guy who never hurt anyone but we lost him at 69.

These scum sucking toads never seem to get hit with the karma they deserve
Why do they prosper while many of us struggle.....
