This is the man if we all remember cheated his own rules by driving miles to his parents house with his family, then went for a drive to Barnard Castle to test his eyesight to see if he would be able to drive the long distance home.... He got away with his lies....now hes trying to bring down Boris Johnson who stood by him foolishly...

Cummings reportedly believes Johnson failed to learn the lessons of the first wave of Covid-19 and so reacted sluggishly when the virus surged again, leading to thousands of needless deaths. This would be in keeping with a Government that performed poorly in the pandemic until its big vaccine success. It is, as Cummings said in his brutal blog, “sad to see the PM fall so far below the standards of competence and integrity the country deserves”. https://inews.co.uk/opinion/dominic-...spot-on-972076 I am not saying Boris hasnt made blunders but come on. shouldnt this weed Cummings go and hide under a stone.. instead of coming out with this..

I am not even interested, Cummings was nothing more than an unelected advisor.

It was Tony Blair who started this spin doctor nonsense, with the likes of self opinionated Alistair Campbell, whilst Theresa May employed to of the stupidest advisors ever.

Cummings is just trying to milk the situation, even though he is yesterday's man.

Politicians usually go on to write memoirs which are filled with such allegations in order to sell more copies, however Cummings was never a politician and is just seeking his own self publicity through the tabloids and media.

Cummings will soon be forgotten about again, and will return to yesterday's news, which is where he belongs.

In reality nobody cares what spin doctors like Campbell or Cummings think, and I wish they would stop giving such people media coverage.

In reality the best thing Boris did, was to get rid of Cummings, who was causing all kinds of problems.

Cummings isn’t anywhere close to being as hypocritical as the mayor of Austin, Texas.
Last fall, Mayor Adler put on a live stream video lecturing his constituents to avoid gatherings, to not travel and stay home if possible.
He made that video while sitting in his luxury beachfront villa in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.... having flown down with family in a private jet after presiding over his daughter’s wedding at a resort venue in Austin attended by a crowd of friends.
He really earned his new moniker “Cabo Steve”.
Lol

Let's just hope this pandemic comes to an end--soon. Besides the obvious tragedies and confusion, the politicians acting like spoiled kids has turned it into a political game. I had forgotten the name of that idiot who went for a long drive and then had to test his eyes, lol, so he could drive back again. In the middle of a pandemic! When everyone else is admonished to stay home!

Now all we're hearing is Dominic Cummings or, of course, BOJO bellowing incoherently that he PAID for his redecorating! (We also get T***p whining that he didn't even get one word of thanks in Biden's latest speech, after all that he has done for this country!

I just had to add my worthless 2 cents. So sick of dishonest, hypocritical, selfish politicians. I wonder if we'll ever get honest leaders who didn't get to where they are by bribery, being filthy rich, lying, etc. /rant.
