How Boris Johnson was brought to his knees by the 'cuckoo nest plot'

"At what is rapidly becoming an infamous dinner party at Mr Johnson’s home on February 16, Mr Johnson, Mr Gove and their wives sat down with the newspaper owner Evgeny Lebedev to discuss politics."

Lebedev is son of former KGB resident in London - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Lebedev

Just how is that fooking possible that such meetings could occur on such sensitive matters???

Media hungry populist politicians love getting into bed with newspaper proprietors - Dave n' Rebecca, for example. You should read Private Eye.

You should read Private Eye.

Unless you're actually chained up in someone's Fritzl cellar, you really shouldn't bother.

Much of this stuff is covered long before it reaches the mainstream media. Well known that two beards likes to cosy to politician.

Gove is an idiot. You don't stitch up one of the most popular politicians and expect his supporters to thank you for it.

I thought TM would be the next leader a couple of weeks ago and can't see anything that would change that.

Boris just needed to run rubbish campaign & May will win. Gove is like your creepy uncle. Probably totally brilliant but very much a next generation Micheal Howard. I can see it now "There is something of the far Right about him"

Yes indeed.

Rightly or wrongly, leaders have to look like leaders. Gove looks creepy.

Yes, but one would imagine they go to bed with Murdock, ToryGraph people - nobody is bloody reading The Independent!

They should have asked that young guy exactly from what legitimate source he finances massive losses of his paper.
