The SNP’s bullying hypocrisy
Spectator (UK)Dec 23, 2021
The Facts
Conservative backbencher, William Wragg, who accused Downing Street of trying to 'blackmail' MPs opposed to Johnson's leadership, is to meet with police.
Rebel Tory MPs claim to have been on the receiving end of intimidation from party whips, facing threats of investments being withdrawn from their constituencies.
The Spin
Left narrative
These are serious allegations that warrant further police investigation. Boris Johnson rightfully faces mounting pressure and a potential no confidence vote over his poor leadership.
Right narrative
Party insiders have seen nothing to substantiate these claims. Rebels are opportunistically fuelling an unjust trial by media for the PM.
