I do really feel for Carrie Johnson and the comments made in the press recently as it isn’t down to her what job her husband does, however I find this quote particularly interesting on the BBC website…
Her spokeswoman said allegations made by former Tory chairman Lord Ashcroft were "just the latest attempt by bitter ex-officials" to discredit her adding: "She is a private individual who plays no role in government."

How then can this be squared with the defence regarding the photos of Boris’ ‘work meeting’ in the garden where she was sat with him? I dont generally bring my DP along to work meetings and if she has no place in government then surely she shouldn’t be there.
