He alleged that the Prime Minister “waved it apart” when he warned him in regards to the celebration scheduled for Could 20 2020 and urged him to “grip this madhouse”.
However Mr Raab instructed Occasions Radio: “The suggestion that he lied is nonsense. He’s made it very clear to the Home of Commons … that he thought it was a piece occasion.”
Showing on Sky Information, Mr Raab mentioned he’s “assured he’s been simple with” Parliament and mentioned the “PM has been very clear that that’s not true or correct” when pressed about Mr Cummings’ claims.
