Hard core remainers dislike Cummings because he was a major player in delivering the Leave vote, Labour supporters dislike him, because he came up with ‘Get Brexit Done’ (against which free internet and a policy of having no policy looked pretty lame), the media dislike him because he doesn’t give them soundbites and some Tories dislike him, because people who cross him tend to get their egos trampled on. Beyond that relatively small bubble, very few people give a damn.

Something like this can add to other factors to create a ‘mood’ against a government, but by itself it is largely insignificant and will be largely forgotten by 2024.

Eid Mubarak to all.
There's a lot of enemies getting made here Kerr plus those Johnson's made along the way to Downing Street .

I think his position following this is starting to become shaky .

Eyebrows were already starting to get raised before this weekend , his handling of the pandemic and the way Starmer is taking him apart in the HOC .

The government won't fall that's for sure but in my opinion Johnson will .

He's the rest of the year to steady his position for me which means getting everyone back to work safely , a massive recession to manage and the small matter of a trade deal to secure with the EU .

It's some itinerary to pull off for any PM never mind this one .

Gove and Sunak waiting in the wings .
