Today, @YvetteCooperMP raised an urgent question with Vicky Ford, Parliamentary undersecretary at the FCO to seek clarification on Boris Johnson's meetings with Alexander Lebedev @YvetteCooperMP: "It is bad enough covering up for parties and breaking the law, but covering up over national security is a total disgrace. It puts all our safety and security at risk. It is not just the PM but the whole Government who are letting the country down." 2/2

Well, Andrew Neil didn't disappoint. Jeremy Hunt came across as indecisive and willing to sacrifice businesses and the lives of those who are poor, but could be in work. The clash with Johnson was intense, and he was evasive, sloppy, and would be a dangerous PM. #BBCOurNextPM We needed #BBCOurNextPM three weeks ago, shortly after Gove was eliminated from the #ToryLeadeshipContest. It's unfortunate that neither of these men have been sufficiently scrutinised with forensic questions and a determined interviewer like @afneil until today. /2
