Senior Conservatives have accused Labour of taking it's "destroy the country" policy and claiming it as their own.
Sir Gavin Williamson led the charge. 'Destroying the country is our brand, it's what we do. So it's a bit rich for Labour to announce they're also going to have a go. Personally, I have worked very hard cocking up defence and education and you won't believe what I had to try and unsee in exchange for my knighthood. When I close my eyes, I can still see it. I don't think anyone from Labour would go that far.'
Chris Grayling was due to speak but due to an "incident" with a revolving door, didn't arrive at the press briefing.
Sir Gavin went on to propose replacing lorries with pogo sticks.
