Read our privacy policy Boris Johnson has rejected claims that he is suffering from the aftereffects of catching Covid-19, branding them "seditious propaganda". The prime minister claimed that the suggestions were invented by enemies of the government's political programme and said the observations about his health were "nonsense". "Of course, this is self-evident drivel, the kind of seditious propaganda that you'd expect of people who don't want this government to succeed, who wanted to stop us delivering Brexit and all our other manifesto pledges and I can tell you that no power on earth was or is going to do that." The prime minister added that the reason he had had "such a nasty experience" with coronavirus was because he was "too fat".
