What did the Prime Minister know?

12:54pm

Daniel Finkelstein cuts to the chase on Comment Central and points out that if the Home Secretary knew about this government foul-up for four moths and kept it secret then surely the Prime Minister must have been told about it?

Before this is all done, Labour might have got through yet another Home Secretary.
