Nadine Dorries questioned over abusive tweets

There is something really wrong with Nadine Dorries, you can see it plain as day right now as she is defending Johnson, with not one foot in reality..

[@number8485]

I doubt that there is anything wrong with Ms Dorries...There clearly appears to be a great deal wrong with some of the UK's political journalists who have perhaps forgotten what free speech is all about and to stifle others' rights of their basic entitlement to it.
