British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's former top aide launched an extraordinary tirade Friday after a series of incriminating leaks, claiming the Conservative leader lacks "competence and integrity". - 'Stop the leak inquiry?' He claimed that an earlier internal investigation over that leak was blocked by Johnson after it identified the likely culprit. "I will have to fire him, and this will cause me very serious problems with Carrie as they're best friends," Cummings said Johnson told him, referring to his fiancee Carrie Symonds. "Perhaps we could get the Cabinet Secretary to stop the leak inquiry?"
