Labour tonight demanded Rishi Sunak block Boris Johnson's "conveyor belt of cronies" after he offered peerages to two young aides, four MP allies and the man who donated his Caribbean holiday.
The ex-PM is thought to have suggested life-long Lords seats for former No10 staffers Ross Kempsell, 30, and Charlotte Owen, believed to be in her late 20s.
Mr Kempsell is an ex-journalist who interviewed Mr Johnson about making model buses out of “old wooden crates” - before joining Downing Street under his leadership.
