Boris Johnson should be kicked out of the Conservative Party for his remarks about the burka, a Muslim peer has said.

Conservative Muslim Forum founder Lord Sheikh told Newsnight demands from the PM for an apology were not enough.

Mr Johnson said Muslim women wearing burkas "look like letter boxes" and compared them to "bank robbers". A source said he stood by the comments.
