Cumgate: The Ineffable Survival of Dominic Cummings

[VoR]

Who’s this mumbling intern? Bring back the women!

 

[Christian]

One thing I'm sure about, this will definitely be the end of the story now it's been so cleanly shut down

 

[Lucille]

I’ve had to piss once during this conference it’s going on so long.

 

[ButterTart]

Turns out he never thought to check if any childcare was available any closer than the other end of the country.

He’s attractive though so I’m ok with it as long as the questions keep up.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh I’d love to see the scenes inside no 10 after this.

Party streamers, champagne corks, jeers and back pats galore I'd imagine.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Oh apparently his WIFEs birthday was the day of the BERNARD CASTLE trip. HHMMMMMM

I'd read MUTTERINGS on Twitter yesterday that he was there for a birthday party

 

[Christian]

Some of these later questions are FIRE

Lucky you’ve never had to drive to Durham without stopping !

What a weak bladder - I recently drove to Durham and back without going for a whizz once

It's like Stuart in BB5 - you're there for the women, but we'll keep Stuart in to the final week for the eye candy and throw him out even before Shell...

Great minds

I wish Diane Abbott was sat in the back swigging from an M&S tinny.

@auretz and @Halloumi - how do you feel about DomCum?

Turns out he never thought to check if any childcare was available any closer than the other end of the country.

I imagine having NO FRIENDS must be a bit of an obstacle. Mind you, he could have looked in the Yellow Pages

"Sometimes explaining things makes them more confusing"

Well you got THAT right

 

[Cerro de Casa]

"If the prime minister decides for me to stop it's up for him not me"

ERM, actually you can do the HONOURABLE thing and resign.

In any other job we'd face disciplinary action!

After driving 30 miles to check your eyesight of course .

 

[ButterTart]

This has been genuinely magnificent television. That farting violin was the most coherent thing we’ve heard in the last hour.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

"Sometimes explaining things makes them more confusing"

Well you got THAT right

Following that sentence up with 'That's what happens 'round here' was beyond Orwellian ridiculousness ...

 

[win_the_game]

FFS I can’t believe I’ve missed most of this. This better be on the iPlayer later this evening.

 

[Christian]

This is going as terribly as I'd hoped. I was worried during the opening spiel that he was going to keep it BRIEF, CONTRITE and DIRECT.

This wiffle waffle, over explained mess is FABULOUS

 

[Lucille]

I’m not sure I can take much more.

 

[COB]

Here's one for @cwej and me and NOBODY ELSE

 

[cwej]

I wish Diane Abbott was sat in the back swigging from an M&S tinny.

You're welcome

Durham - not even a nice place to be.

[Lucille]

We’ve still got the government press conference

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is torture for him and AMAZING TV.

Absolute Schadenfreude.

@auretz and @Halloumi - how do you feel about DomCum?

Take a wild guess

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Country cottage, with acres of land and private wood - “not a nice place to be”

SO RELATABLE!

 

[Christian]

We’ve still got the government press conference

Now that's a double bill and a half

 

[Soldi]

Is anyone else drinking, I’ve cracked open a KOPPARBERG

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I need a piss so much.
