Richard Sharp's appointment as BBC chair has been questioned after reports claimed he helped Boris Johnson get a loan before the then-PM appointed him.

Training a pilot to fly one of the RAF’s jets takes years and the government is focused on support it can provide now, Number 10 said.

The Kremlin insists the claims Putin reportedly told Johnson ‘I don’t want to hurt you, but with a missile, it would only take a minute’ are a 'lie.'
