Boris Johnson has ducked questions over whether he wanted to build a £150,000 bulletproof treehouse for his son Wilf
The embattled Prime Minister tried to bat away questions over the project, which sources said he hoped would be paid for by Tory donor Lord Brownlow.
Two days after a pair of abysmal by-election defeats, Mr Johnson, speaking on a visit to Rwanda, was asked if taxpayers' money had gone towards the project's planning. When it was put to him the story appeared to be true, he said: "I make no comment about that story, nor about your claim that it is true."
But even the proposed addition of bulletproof glass to the treehouse – something that increased the cost "significantly" – did not allay fears that it would prove to be a security risk and the plan was dropped."He was told it would look terrible," a government source said.
