I see Dan Wootton has ridden to Johnson's rescue with this sycophantic nonsense.

Chatty Rat, Carrie and Cummings need to bury the hatchet and get behind Boris for the sake of the country
Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings once represented a near-perfect political allegiance.

The country owes them for securing the seismic Brexit victory and guaranteeing its delivery, following numerous pathetically meek failures by Theresa May.

United, it felt like nothing could topple them – the future of the UK was in exciting hands.

The rulebook was shredded. Anything could happen! What a ride…
Dom, the Westminster-destroying outsider who would take no prisoners in his mission to turn 'the system' – from the terrified BBC to the institutionalised civil service – upside down and inside out.
Boris, the affable public face, who could win support for his steely-eyed political partner's revolutionary agenda.
So he basically wants potential corruption covered up for the sake of the country.

Both would tell you it doesn’t matter as long as people believe your lies. Karma’s a bitch.

To quote Tony Wilson, the ride gets faster and faster, then it breaks. But you don't really mind because you're now really flying. But nothing lasts forever, because nothing beats gravity.

No fan of Johnson, obviously, but being called "mad and totally unethical" by Dominic Cummings is a bit much. Rather like being accused of getting out to a lazy shot by David Gower.

Odd how he calls enquiries for things he won’t be blamed for relatively quickly.

Looks like we have a head of steam building. The fun will be watching the stenographers trying to figure out whose side they are on, knowing that, with an 80-seat majority, none of this makes the blind bit of difference, except to the upcoming garden party circuit and their careers.

Kuenssberg's output seems to be limited to about three minute's a month, these days, as she attempts to straddle the right horse. (Sorry.)

That said, the Sundays should be a right laugh.

Beeb news at ten.

There you have it, groovers.

So you bloody should be. You and your disturbing imagery... I had to jab a screwdriver into my hand (as opposed to my eye, like I did earlier in the week) to prevent the image forming.

I'll look like I've got bloody stigmata before long...

I think that the chances of his career ending in the high court rather than at the ballot box are greater at this moment in time.

I’ve never cared less. Two professional liars drowning in their own shit.

But why now? Is Dismal Dom getting in some plea bargaining?

Dom’s been watching the Wire and has this covered. This is playground kids stuff. Love it.
I am happy to meet with the Cabinet Secretary and for him to search my phone for Dyson messages. If the PM did send them to me, as he is claiming, then he will be able to show the Cabinet Secretary on his own phone when they were sent to me. It will therefore be easy to establish at least if I was ever sent these messages. I am also happy to publish or give to the Cabinet Secretary the PM/Dyson messages that I do have, which concerned ventilators, bureaucracy and covid policy — not tax issues.

Real people died because of this. Actual, real people, with real aspirations, hopes and dreams. Gone, so someone can make a fast buck off everyone else's misery.

I bitterly regret my apostrophe crime in post #722. My defence, such as it is, was that I reformulated that sentence a couple of times before posting.

Apologies, Comrades.

Righto. I’ve joined the dots, and it’s just … a picture of a cock and balls? Somewhat poorly drawn. Is that what you’re getting as well, Superintendent Hastings?
***** Johnson has a text addiction and it’s bad news for all of us

The alleged Dominic Cummings leaks may just be a distraction from the bigger issue: we’re led by a man with no self-discipline and a very busy phone

Nicked from the BTL comments on that:
Boris is a total twat, we all know it. And he’s in charge. We are a twat country. Laughable and scary.
Hard to deny that.
