BORIS Johnson nearly sent Rishi Sunak a sweary video after his resignation, his ex-spin doctor has claimed.

Guto Harri, who advised Mr Johnson last year, called the resignation last summer “the greatest betrayal”.

He said: “Rishi walked out. Didn’t even tell Boris.

“Boris found a little video on the internet — he sent it to me and said, ‘Thinking of sending this to Rishi’.”

Sources close to the ex-PM dismissed the reports as “simply inaccurate”.
