Many of Friday's papers lead with the claims that Tory rebels have been blackmailed, which the PM has rejected.

Several of Friday's papers feature the accusations that Tory whips have been blackmailing MPs to support Boris Johnson. The Daily Mirror describes it as the "lowest of the low" as it reports that ex-Tory MP Christian Wakeford - who this week defected to Labour - was told he would lose funding for a new school in his constituency unless he voted against free school meals. The PM says he has "seen no evidence" of blackmail in his party.

The Metro calls the claims of blackmail "another political crisis" facing the prime minister. It quotes Conservative MP William Wragg who said suspected plotters were threatened with damaging press stories and funding cuts for constituency projects. Meanwhile, the paper's main front page picture shows commuters at London's Waterloo station as working from home guidance ended.
