Michael Gove is ‘nuts’ and Boris is ‘after my job’: David Cameron’s tensions with Brexit backers revealed

David Cameron is “petrified” of Boris Johnson and branded Michael Gove a “Maoist” who wants to be the darling of the Tory right, according to an insider’s account of the Coalition years.

The Prime Minister is said to have confided in Nick Clegg that the Justice Secretary had “gone a bit nuts recently” and was driving him “around the bend”.
