According to senior Government sources, the Prime Minister has spent six months objecting to Mr Cummings's attempt to move him out of the ramshackle No10 'den' where he works and into an open-plan space more similar to the West Wing of the White House, including large television screens displaying the 'performance data' of the Civil Service.

It is part of a plan by Mr Cummings to centralise and streamline the often cumbersome decision-making processes in No10 – a move civil servants have privately characterised as a 'power grab'.

The rickety corridors and offices of Downing Street create an often claustrophobic atmosphere for officials and political advisers, and have also been linked to the rapid spread of the coronavirus to Mr Johnson and his inner circle earlier this year.
