Labour has demanded Parliament's standards watchdog probes claims that the BBC chairman helped Boris Johnson guarantee a loan of up to £800,000 - weeks before he was recommended for the job by the then-PM.
Reports emerged last week that the big-spending ex-PM's distant Canadian cousin stepped in to help Mr Johnson fund his lavish lifestyle when he found himself in financial trouble in 2020.
Millionaire Sam Blyth acted as a guarantor to up to £800,000 of credit to fund the ex-PM’s “day-to-day expenses”, according to the Sunday Times.
