I have to admit that, whenever I hear the words “Dominic Cummings”, a little bit of me dies.
However, his blog piece denying being a leak for anything and accusing Boris of being “mad”, “incompetent” and acting “illegally” has brought out the very best in Marina Hyde. Her opinion piece made me laugh at loud several times.
BoJo will, of course, brazen it out. Like Adam Ant, he is not afraid of ridicule. There will be no parliamentary enquiry, despite Cummings’ suggestion, and all the sleaze business will be resolutely ignored, regardless of Labour’s best efforts to keep it alive.
The sun is shining and the virus is under control. I predict Tory gains in the upcoming local elections.
In the meantime, there is no fury like a spad scorned. Let’s make the most of it, join in the lolz with Marina and dream of BoJo rolling in deep doo doo.
