Dominic Cummings

When you’re gone, you’re gone… The last man to do so much damage to the UK had a toothbrush moustache. Now Bojo (and the Country) is at the mercy of the ERG.

Should n’t that be at the mercy of Carrie Symonds??

I think she was just a useful idiot for the ERG in this affair. Amazing how they have taken control. Bojo is flailing about and who has better access that her. Though I suppose she did risk another “family disturbance”.

No - you can clearly see that he still has his ID lanyard on - that would have been confiscated were he truly out.

What a pathetic piece of theatre to walk out of the front door with a box, just like a New York film, a very bad one.
The only real man to leave the front door of number 10 and stride off down the street was Michael Heseltine who, had he been Prime Minister the world might have been a better place!
Cummings hasn’t gone, he will still be filling Boris full of crap via Zoom and Skype for along time yet. Its Cummings latest plan to rule and distract the media to what is really going on.

Well spotted Paul. But is there a badge on the end if the lanyard :slightly_smiling_face: His sword has been broken, so maybe his lanyard has been yanked.

i don’t know (and I’ve checked all the photos of him leaving) but had he been dismissed he’d have to have given up his security ID and most people would probably just take the whole thing off over their heads. Also, without the badge there isn’t much to keep the strap from flapping in the breeze - and it clearly isn’t.

In fact normal form would be to have the employee to hand over ID, escort them to their desk, supervise them clearing personal belongings and then escort them from the building.

I don’t think he’s as gone as people seem to believe.

I think the official line is he’s working at home until December. He’s going to be focussing on Track and Trace. Good news for Dido :joy:

I don’t know what was in the box he was lugging as he did the walk of shame. His office isn’t even in No. Ten. Maybe his Christmas present from Boris and Carrie?

Which makes it somewhat more likely it was for show.

And if it is a Christmas present from Carrie he should check for ticking :slight_smile:

The whole thing is like a bad sixth form play.

Nothing at all. It’s a charade like everything else.

Just shows how guileless I am. I can’t figure out what potential advantage there is to sloping off, head bowed like a whipped dog. Surely a Monty Pythonesque nude sprint down Downing Street would have been more dignified? Wait and see, I suppose.

Of course, he may have kidnapped Larry (seen here marking Bojo’s suit)as a bargaining chip…

Rocco does it so well :rofl:

Gove and Cummings are under investigation for getting a contract without going through the necessary procedure.
He may well bring Gov down with him as well.

One can only hope.

Is that Gov or Gove or both? :crossed_fingers:

There is more to come on the Dominic Cummings story yet over the next couple of months. I was hearing predictions on the radio today that PM may not last until end of January.

We can only hope that giving dodgy contracts worth hundreds of millions to his mates will come back to oust him. The UK should not be a banana republic.

I’d just read that article. The last bit made me laugh.

A senior government source on Boris Johnson “The person who suffers is the prime minister, who’s a good man trying to do very difficult things”.

Poor old beleaguered Boris… Just trying to do what’s best for the country :scream:

Talk about totaly misreading somebody’s character.
