Alan Duncan ripped into the Prime Minister and many of his cabinets in his autobiography.

Mr Duncan, who was Johnson’s deputy when he was Foreign Secretary, said the PM has a “self-deluding mock-romantic passion”.

He added: “He is a clown … an embarrassing buffoon … an international stain on our reputation … disloyal ... ill-disciplined, shambolic, shameless clot … an egotistical showman.”
