“Until there is something substantiated, until it is more than anonymous sources, I think we are chasing shadows,” he told the BBC’s The Andrew Marr Show.“But I don’t know the full facts because I wasn’t there. Last week The Daily Mirror reported that two events took place in No 10 last year in the run-up to the festive season.
