Nadine Dorries defends her attack on Rishi Sunak's 'expensive' clothing

Nadine Dorries has defended her attack on Rishi Sunak’s expensive clothing, suggesting that she "stands by" her comments.

The culture secretary also said she had warned that a Tory leadership contest to replace Boris Johnson would “unleash the hounds of hell”.

"Well, you know, I made my comments and I stand by my comments," Ms Dorries said.

"It's about judgement and it's about who voters can relate to and who voters think have walked in their shoes and understand their lives," she added, before throwing her support behind Liz Truss.

Carry on talking Nadine, you’re the oppositions best weapon.

In fairness to her, stylish expensive clothing isn't something she's ever been afflicted with.

[SNAFUferret]

Morally corrupt and some. Dorries is a joke.

[Exiide]

Does Boris wear "cheap" clothes? Or as a matter of fact, does she?

[WorldOfWeebcraft]

Imagine saying a tory is in touch with real people’s lives 😂

[rubinklein]

good to see a confirmation that common sense honesty and intellect are still lacking in between the ears of a woman desperate for attention and adulations

[Theoriginalramjammer]

Of course you can justify your cheap shot comments and attitude. You are a pupil of Boris and if Sunak gets in you will be out of a job. The more you talk, the more self harm you inflict.

Whatever you think of Johnson, Sunak or Truss, just imagine what life would be like with that waste of molecules at the helm. . . .

[uchihaitachi]

Surely no one actually takes this woman seriously 🙄

[peterah]

Everyone thinks she is a fool except her

Stylish expensive clothing isn't something Nadine's ever been afflicted with.

He lied and lied and lied yet apparently according to Nadine 'Channel 4 is publicly funded' Dorries he was defenestrated

[jonathanjamie]

Mad nadine, drunk and a bit of a mess

[bigredd]

quality people all round in the tory party lol

[everestyeti]

He was removed because he was dishonest and lied al the time. The way she carries on you'd think she had a teenage crush on Boris. As it looks like Liz Truss is going to win, I hope that her 1st business is to sack this awful woman.

[jonpowell]

Its all paid for by the Channel 4 license fee doris. Didn't you put your claim in?

[stepevin]

Don't need to defend it, your right.

[cadge]
