Rawnsley does not allege that Brown hit anyone. His book does claim that Brown swore at U.S. political strategist Bob Shrum, stabbed the white leather interior of an official car with a black pen, grabbed a staff member by the lapels and earned a "pep talk" about how to treat staff from Cabinet Secretary, Gus O'Donnell. Taken together with Watt's depiction of a temperamental premier sulking at a dinner including Louis Susman, later appointed U.S. ambassador to London, after guests took their seats without waiting for Brown to allocate placements, and Price's account of Brown's "extraordinary...
