We brief, and get approval from Boris, brief the committees, the House of Commons, the HMRC, councils etc then literally roll it out the following day"......he never lost his cool when she still insisted on advice the previous day, so she could brief the SNP prior to general announcement (for what reason, I wasn't sure....so the SNP could object to people getting a mortgage holiday?)
He had his team behind him, but rarely needed advice, and I never saw him use notes or prompts.....he seemed to have every answer already in his memory....did a bit of googling to check his biography......some serious credentials
