Greg Kahn It was a summer’s afternoon in New York, and Karen Pierce, then Permanent Representative of the United Kingdom to the United Nations, was hosting a party to mark the Queen’s official birthday. In the garden of the UN headquarters in Manhattan’s Midtown East, a trestle table heaved under 500 cupcakes arranged in the shape of the Union Jack, while military attachés mingled with senior officials over drinks and music. “But the standout,” recalls Pierce proudly, “was the Brazilian drag queen.” That year, you see, Her Majesty’s birthday celebration coincided with the city hosting WorldPride, and the spicier than usual event was made “even more delicious” when a downpour forced partygoers – and performers – inside to the Sputnik Lounge, a Russian-sponsored part of the UN foyer. “And the Russians are not helpful, to put it mildly, on LGBTQ rights,” says Pierce with relish. “It was one of those great occasions where there’s a mini crisis and every

The former prime minister’s ultimate aim in his messages to frontbenchers, officials and aides last year was to increase access to Covid loan schemes for the firm. He sought a number of one-on-one phone conversations and conference calls in a bid to unblock barriers to Greensill being admitted to the Covid Corporate Financing Facility (CCFF). While it previously emerged that Mr Cameron had lobbied Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Treasury ministers Jesse Norman and John Glen, on Tuesday it became clear he also contacted Michael Gove, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, and Business Minister Nadhim Zahawi. In addition, Mr Cameron discussed Greensill with Sir Tom Scholar, the most senior civil servant at the Treasury, as well Sir Jon Cunliffe, deputy governor of the Bank of England, and Sheridan Westlake, senior special adviser to the Prime Minister.
