Peerages

Asked if the Prime Minister was still backing Chi Patel for a peerage, the PMOS said, as he had this morning, that he was not going to comment on questions about the peerage nominations process. Asked whether the leak had come from Downing Street, the PMOS asked whether there could be one good reason why it might be in Downing Street’s interests to leak such things? We had been absolutely scrupulous, so far as he was concerned, in not in any way commenting on this process and he was not going to now.

Put to him that it might have been leaked to stop the nomination, the PMOS suggested that that suggestion came under F in the dictionary either for fiction or fantasy – it was true for both!
