Tory leadership race: lots of texts flying around

Andrew Mitchell MP responds to the text sent out by Nick Boles, who is behind Michael Gove's campaign, which criticised fellow candidate Andrea Leadsom.

Mr Mitchell, who is backing Mr Gove, said there are "lots of texts and emails flying around" and that the electorate will make up their own minds.
