Boris Johnson has called for resignations at The Guardian following criticism of a cartoon it published featuring the former BBC chair Richard Sharp. The newspaper took down the controversial image on Saturday after critics said it included a series of antisemitic tropes.
The former Tory prime minister, who was also depicted in the cartoon – sitting naked atop a pile of excrement and holding two large sacks of money – told The Mail on Sunday: “Frankly, whoever commissioned and printed this has made a far worse mistake than Richard Sharp. They should take his lead.”
