A spot of embarrassment for the Telegraph’s Camilla Tominey on Politics Live this morning as she was seen admonishing her cleaner for walking into shot while she was preparing to speak about Sir Keir’s conference speech. At least it looks like Camilla’s providing ample PPE for her staff…
UPDATE: Camilla gets in touch to say she was filming at the Royal Overseas League today so had to do Politics Live from there, “That’s not my house!!! Cleaner walked into shot just at wrong moment!”
MediaGuido can reveal a major Lobby move: Sunday Express political editor Camilla Tominey is leaving the paper after 15 years to join The Telegraph as their new Associate Editor (Politics and Royals). She is believed to have been poached by Rob Winnett and will have a roving brief to land scoops, big interviews and campaigns, reporting alongside the Lobby and largely based in Westminster. Readers will remember her stealing the show on Question Time.
Camilla was the journalist who first broke the news of Harry and Meghan dating back in 2016, and she’ll be glad to only be doing two jobs rather than the four she had at the Sunday Express. She starts in September. Congratulations – this will set off a bit of a merry-go-round…
