He said that he chronicled the conversations between himself and the President and later that he tipped off the media bout said notes to force the appointment of a special investigator.

Guest: Laura Babcock. President, PowerGroup.

She’s currently meeting with the Queen to discuss whether she can open government. The results look like they may trigger a period of political uncertainty especially around Brexit negotiations.
