BUSINESS Secretary Grant Shapps has quietly deleted a social media post after it was pointed out that former prime minister Boris Johnson had been edited out of the accompanying image.
Shapps, a close ally of Johnson during his time in No 10, had posted on Twitter in advance of the rocket launch from Spaceport Cornwall, backing the first-ever launch of a satellite from European soil.
However, it was the photo that accompanied the now-deleted tweet (below) which drew attention. It showed Shapps on a visit to the spaceport, apparently alone.
