Dominic Cummings to make public statement this afternoon

[Baloo]

Nail on head. He has an elevated opinion on his importance.

What Boris doesn’t appear to have grasped is a growing criticism that he’s not in charge. Having stepped in personally yesterday to make a statement about this affair to now wheel in Cummings to present the case and take questions himself just makes Boris appear weak again imo.

Having said that, ignoring the accusations of potential rule breaking/massaging once again, I must admit I’m actually looking forward to hearing what DC has to say after all the speculation over the last few days as so far the attempted explanations by cabinet members have been hopeless.
