What a lot of power Dominic Cummings thinks he has...

I often wondered why Boris kept faith with him, especially after he broke the Covid rules with his trips to Durham and Barnard Castle. People like Cummings and as you say, Tony Blair, are legends in their own minds and their arrogance knows no bounds. Cummings would have been furious at being shown the door of No 10 and will be happily plotting away to see Boris gets the same experience.

I don’t think it’s fair to compare Dominic Cummings and Tony Blair.
Whatever you think of Blair, at least he was elected, not only by the people of this country but by the Labour Party to lead them.

I really think everyone should bypass him and stop listening. The law, the government, the media and us.

What this odious man wants is publicity and attention. We should starve him of it. Show him how irrelevant he is.

I hope that he manages it.
Fair means or foul!
Johnson is an extremely dangerous man.

Online news this morning; Dominic Cummings has declared that Boris Johnson is a 'fu****t' and it is 'his duty to remove him'. Aside from the fact that he supported the Johnson administation until he fell out of favour and was relieved of his position, what kind of ego does this man have when he can declare that 'his duty' is to bring down the Prime Minister? I wonder what his job description is right now, and never cease to marvel at the astounding narcissism of some personalities who were formerly in politics. A sense of unending self importance and omnipotence - Tony Blair being another .
