Tory donor 'asked to fund nanny for Boris Johnson's baby' as PM 'needs £300k to get by'

mirror.co.uk:

A Tory donor was asked to fund a nanny for Boris Johnson's baby because the Prime Minister can't survive on his £157,372-a-year salary, bombshell reports say today.

The 'cash for curtains' saga has deepened after the claims in the Sunday Times - which reported the twice-divorced PM needs £300,000 a year to survive his high living costs.

That is more than 10 times the average salary in the UK. Even the PM's existing salary puts him well within the top 2% of earners.

The donor is alleged to have moaned to an MP: "I don't mind paying for leaflets but I resent being asked to pay to literally wipe the Prime Minister's baby's bottom." A No 10 spokeswoman said: "The Prime Minister has covered the cost of all childcare." But she did not respond
