Is Boris Johnson untouchable?

The battle to be Prime Minister - and a mind game involving a black Boris Johnson.

Boris Johnson is the clear favourite to replace Theresa May. He easily made it to the final along with Jeremy Hunt after getting backing from more than 100 Tory MPs. But things have gone a bit wrong for him after his neighbours recorded a row with his girlfriend Carrie Symonds and gave it to the press. He鈥檚 also faced criticism for hiding from TV debates 鈥 Jeremy Hunt has told him to 鈥渕an up鈥. So with a less than a month to go before we have a new Prime Minister, just how vulnerable is Boris Johnson? We speak to 麻豆官网首页入口 Political Correspondent Ben Wright and Joanne Nadler, author of 鈥淭oo Nice to be a Tory鈥. We also hear from Nels Abbey, author of 鈥淭hink Like A White Man鈥, who tells us how things would be different for Boris Johnson if he were black.
