Tory MP Nadine Dorries was roundly criticised by her fellow backbench Tory MPs on Wednesday night for her outspoken criticism of David Cameron and George Osborne as "arrogant posh boys". Her recent comments were flayed by several of her fellow backbenchers during a private meeting of the 1922 Committee of Tory MPs. "I wish she would just shut the f**k up," is how one backbench Tory MP put it to HuffPost after the meeting, where several Tory MPs made no secret of their annoyance with her recent interviews. It's a tense day for Downing Street as Andy Coulson is due to be quizzed at the Leveson inquiry. Cameron's former communications chief's appearance comes ahead of Rebekah Brooks' grilling on Friday. Will it be the revenge of the red top? Or will the two former News of the World editors spare the prime minister's blushes. Also today American's will be waking up to news that President Obama has come out in favour of gay marriage. While his support has little immediate practical impact, it does represent a huge victory for gay rights campaigners and will of course become an election issue. BLOG POSTS
