This is good, yet again, from @jillongovt

Love Johnson has sub-contracted his brain to Cummings.

The key is to make sure that JIHNSON takes responsibility for it - as he should, because he knew about it, he turned a blind eye to it (so Cummings went back to Durham on 19/4)
He not only turned a blind eye to it and failed to say “sorry mate this isn’t acceptable” he allowed the No 10 media machine to make out that the truth coming from Durham police, members of the public and the press were lies.

That is unforgivable.
THEN allowed the party machine to make out that the whole shit show was OK .

Not just OK. Lawful. Within the spirit of the rules.

Just when clear messaging that it absolutely was not is critical to saving lives.
Every death now is on them because they have created the conditions where the disease will circulate more freely, discipline has broken down and, just when unity for the greater good is needed, fertilised division even more.

Johnson. Gove. Raab. Hancock. Cummings and his team.
It is really worth listening to the whole ThinkIn. 1 hour.

Apart from @jillongovt ascerbic cut through it has one of my favourite journalists @xtophercook reminding us of Cummings’ and Gove’s history of deceit, shiny ideas and poor execution.

The other thing that shines out is the fact that Johnson is an empty bladder. Leader in name Only.

A whole session talking about Cummings.

Can you imagine that in a Blair Government? No.

In fact I cannot think of any other Government where this would have occurred.
The other thing that feels right ...Cummings is against things not for a specific long term end.

Don’t say what sort of Brexit. Just hate the EU.

And Christopher Cook’s personal story of Gove and Cummings’ willingness to be dishonest and embark upon cruel personal attacks.
And even that was done badly.

Even that.
