Boris Johnson has denied BBC chairman Richard Sharp's involvement in his finances and called the claims "complete nonsense".
Mr Johnson told Sky News that Sharp is a "good and wise man" after it was reported that
Mr Sharp helped the former prime minister secure a loan of up to £800,000 in late 2020.
Mr Johnson then went on to recommend him for the top job at the BBC.
