Boris Johnson is “tainted by sleaze” according to the headline of the i newspaper – which reports the results of an opinion poll of voters. It says half of those questioned believe there is a “culture of sleaze” within government. The paper also describes Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove’s defence of Mr Johnson as a “wounding blow” – as it claims Mr Gove “refuses to deny” allegations the PM said last year “bodies could pile high” before he would approve a third lockdown in England. The PM insists the claim is “total rubbish”.
