Boris Johnson made a jibe at Emily Thornberry in a post marking St George's Day. The Tory former prime minister referred to the Labour MP infamously tweeting a picture of a house decked with England flags during the 2014 Rochester and Strood by-election.

The post prompted accusations of snobbery and led to her resignation from Labour's frontbencher. Mr Johnson wrote on X: "Happy St George’s Day! Let’s fly the England flag in defiance of Emily Thornberry and joyless wokery everywhere."

He also questioned what the Islington South and Finsbury MP was trying to imply by tweeting the picture.
