Tories engulfed by sleaze as Rishi Sunak branded ‘weak’ over Nadhim Zahawi sacking

Daily Mirror says Rishi Sunak came under fire from fellow Tories over his feeble handling of the Nadhim Zahawi dishonesty scandal.

After a fortnight of dithering, the PM finally axed the party Chairman for breaking ministerial rules seven times by trying to cover up the fact he was facing a probe into his tax affairs.

But with his party mired in sleaze, Mr Sunak was branded weak and warned he faces being dragged down by a string of scandals.

It comes as Mr Zahawi refused to apologise and even blamed the press for reporting his rule-breaking.
