is. person as controversial as dominic cummings is— person as controversial as dominic cummings is. support for the government, conservative party, has correlated very closely with support for the government doing the right thing on the pandemic. in other words, if you think the government is doing the right thing when it comes to dealing with the pandemic, it is likely you will be very favourable towards the government, and vice versa. as things have gone along, it is that that have changed things much more than any individual events involving specific people, be they dominic cummings or otherwise. we specific people, be they dominic cummings or otherwise. we have had a dri dri of cummings or otherwise. we have had a drip drip of claims, _ cummings or otherwise. we have had a drip drip of claims, dominic— drip drip of claims, dominic cummings appearing before a select committee and is now talking to laura kuenssberg. any sense this is gradually wearing away at support for borisjohnson? gradually wearing away at support for boris johnson?— gradually wearing away at support for boris

can you defend your. actions, mr cummings?aught out by his own trip to county durham during lockdown. i had repeated security problems at my house, going back to 2019, and i was in discussions with the cabinet office in march about the situation. they had suggested maybe all of us moving into government accommodation. i had said, maybe, but maybe i willjust move them all off into my dad's farm in durham. we talked about those different options. i talked to the pm about that. my wife was kind of ill but not with the kind of official symptoms exactly. has she got it? has she not got it? so then you had the combination of security problems, which meant anyway, we were going to get out. there was... ..enormous public rage. why didn't you just tell the truth at the time? well, the situation was just... it was extremely, um, chaotic situation. the original plan was, when i discussed it with the prime minister on the saturday and sunday was, given he knew what had actually happened, he agreed we should just say nothing about it orjus

mr cummings clearly has his own rather personal agenda to pursue.ch i think everybody in the whole united kingdom can be extremely proud. dominic cummings said this wasn't all about revenge, a claim dismissed by one former colleague. in the case of dominic cummings, i think you're going to get a lot more of this from him, he is clearly obviously a very bitter man. i know, i employed him, i sacked him, i know how he works, this will go on for some time. many other tories see this as a vendetta. he denies revenge. but labour says he is an important witness to what happened. every time the prime minister has dithered and delayed in taking critical decisions, i think what dominic cummings said feeds into the feeling he hasn't taken it as seriously as he should have. controversial, divisive, dominic cummings was by borisjohnson's side through covid and brexit, and he still has more to say. we will talk more about that in just a moment, but let mejust show we will talk more about that in just a moment, but let me just show you live pictures right now ofje
