"What, a conservative MP spouting untruths….. if they tell us what they want us to hear enough times it becomes fact."

Business Secretary Grant Shapps has finally apologised after “inadvertently” airbrushing former PM Boris Johnson out of a photo.

It comes as “Shapps ludicrously claimed his Sacking Nurses Bill has the international seal of approval. But the ILO and US Labour Secretary beg to differ,” according to Angela Rayner.

The head of the UN’s agency for workers’ rights has denied that the organisation backs the UK’s tough new strike laws, reports the BBC.

Suggest you get “Grant Shaps ludicrous claimed..” as a shortcut, might save a bit of time 😂

Photoshop

The picture went viral on social media Virgin Orbit aircraft in Cornwall back in June 2022.

The flight since took off and failed.

In the now-deleted tweet, Shapps wrote: “The UK Govt is delighted to be backing the FIRST ever satellite launch on European soil. Lift-off scheduled on Monday at Spaceport Cornwall, Newquay.”

Here it is though!

Now, Shapps has spoken about the embarrassing incident by jokingly claiming that he told his team to ‘hairbrush’ Johnson, not ‘airbrush’.

"I simply told the team he needs hair brushing"

My favourite part of the Grant Shapps photo editing story is how bad the photoshop job is. https://t.co/fjuF1wtnFQ pic.twitter.com/7hupZQ8kAH
