BORIS Johnson devised a secret plot to invade Holland and seize Covid vaccine supplies. In his new memoir Unleashed, the ex-PM details how after months of “futile” negotiations with EU chiefs for the release of five million vaccines, he drew up contingency plans for British special forces to take matters into their own hands. Former PM Boris Johnson drew up plans to invade the Netherlands to seize Covid vaccinesGetty In 2021 supplies of the British-pioneered jab were “kidnapped” by Brussels bureaucrats in a warehouse in Leiden while they battled ministers over red tape. Despite mapping out plans to covertly raid Dutch canals and claim the vaccines, Mr Johnson ultimately concluded the idea was “nuts”. In Unleashed, which is being serialised in the Daily Mail before its full release on October 10, the ex-PM also delves into his life-threatening battle with Covid and the Partygate scandal that ultimately ended his premiership. Mr Johnson recounts that when his arch-nemesis and former Cabinet colleague Michael Gove found out he could die from the disease, “his spectacles seemed to glitter at the thought”. The ex-PM also gives heart-breaking details about how he avoided falling asleep in the Intensive Care Unit at St Thomas’s hospital out of fear he’d never wake up. Turning to partygate, Mr Johnson staunchly defended his conduct in No10 during the pandemic.

In his memoir, Unleashed, he writes: “If it hadn’t been for Jenny and Luis, fiddling with those oxygen tubes all night with all their skill and experience, I think I might have carked it.”

He admits ignoring doctors’ advice about going to hospital despite being so ill he could barely walk.

He only did when told it could “go either way”.
