One of Boris Johnson’s most senior advisers resigned after losing “a highly public power struggle” with the prime minister’s fiancee, Carrie Symonds, reports the Daily Telegraph. It says Lee Cain quit his role as director of communications after Ms Symonds “effectively vetoed his promotion” to the role of Downing Street chief of staff. The paper quotes allies of Ms Symonds as saying she was “uncomfortable” with the appointment.
