Asked if the Prime Minister had been aware that Sir Gulam Noon had been lending money to the Labour party when he nominated him for a peerage, the PMOS said that he didn’t get into processology or party matters.
Asked if Lord Levy was still the UK’s Middle East envoy, the PMOS said yes. Asked for detail of what he actually did, the PMOS said that we didn’t brief on Lord Levy’s role because it was best done in private. Asked if he knew whether the police investigation would involve Lord Levy, the PMOS said that he wouldn’t give a running commentary on that police investigation. Asked if the Prime Minister or Jonathan Powell would be happy to cooperate with that investigation if they were asked, the PMOS said that that was a hypothetical question.
Asked about the Prime Minister’s resignation honours list and whether it would be vetted this time, the PMOS said that answering that would set all sorts of hares running so he hoped journalists would forgive him if he didn’t comment.
