A Tory MP got his just desserts for saying the PM was ‘ambushed with a cake’ – 34 sweet burns

Yet another Tory MP has taken up the baton in defence of the Prime Minister’s partying – and hit himself straight in the face with it.

Conor Burns told Channel 4’s Cathy Newman that the PM was blameless in the birthday party row as he had been ‘ambushed with a cake’.

He got such a thorough mauling from Twitter, we’re not sure he’ll ever gateau-ver it.
