Boris and Carrie mystery guest revealed as top Remainer

The wedding of Boris Johnson and Carrie Symonds was a highly secretive affair. The couple tied the knot yesterday at Westminster cathedral, with key aides being kept out of the loop for fear of leaks. So Mr S was surprised to spot one high-profile Remainer pictured emerging from Downing Street in wedding attire last night, having been apparently sworn to secrecy.

The ‘mystery man’ in a gold waistcoat who the Mail captured here with the label ‘it is not clear what their relation to the newlyweds is’ is none other than one Hugo Dixon. The ardent Remainer and Old Etonian ran the pro-Brussels gospel ‘InFacts’ and was a key ally of Roland Rudd during the People’s Vote campaign, whose efforts to fire James McGrory and Tom Baldwin was credited with leading to the ultimate collapse of the second referendum cause.
