Anderson doesn't believe Khan comments were wrong in any way

Former deputy Conservative Party chair, Lee Anderson, has doubled down on his comment that London Mayor Sadiq Khan was "under the control of Islamists".

He said he didn't consider Mr Khan's own faith when criticising him but just thought he was a "useless" mayor that "pandered to this section of people".

Grant Shapps has said that “state involvement” in the large-scale cyber attack on the Ministry of Defence cannot be ruled out as speculation continues to grow that China carried out the hack. The defence secretary said there is evidence of “potential failings” of the contractor operating the payroll system that was hacked, “which may have made it easier for the malign actor” to gain access to bank details of veterans.
