LONDON, Jan 20 (Reuters) - The office of Boris Johnson is not aware of any evidence to support allegations made by a senior lawmaker that officials had sought to intimidate and blackmail politicians opposed to the British prime minister, a spokesperson said.
"We are not aware of any evidence to support what are clearly serious allegations," the spokesperson said. "If there is any evidence to support these claims we would look at it very carefully." (Reporting by Elizabeth Piper; writing by Kate Holton, Editing by Kylie MacLellan)
