SARAH VINE: Dominic Cummings is rude, irritating and looks like he got dressed in a skip - but Number 10 will be diminished by his loss
Friday evening, and I'm sitting in the kitchen with my son when the news that Dominic Cummings (left) has left No 10 pings on to my phone. 'Dom's gone,' I say, watching him unload half a bottle of tomato ketchup on to his sausages. 'Dom?' he says. 'As in... dad's friend Dom?' 'Yup,' I reply. 'Oh wow,' he says. 'That's a shame. I like Dom. He once picked me up from football. It was the most intense car journey of my life.' That made me smile. That's Dom in a nutshell: no small talk, no unnecessary chit-chat, none of your patronising nonsense. Not even if you're a child. Actually, probably especially not if you're a child.

No 10 braces for an 'explosive stunt' by Cummings after 'Princess Nut Nut' delivered the coup de grace: PM's adviser 'won't go quietly' after being booted out following 'confrontation over texts that fell into hands of Carrie Symonds
The Prime Minister's partner is said to have been the driving force behind the senior adviser's dramatic exit last night.
Dominic Cummings' friends say the 'mad Queen will destroy the court' while friends of Carrie Symonds say 'all this vitriol is rank misogyny' in extraordinary row over influence of the PM's fiancée
Boris Johnson's ousted aides have privately predicted the 'beginning of the end' for the Prime Minister following the extraordinary row which broke out over the influence of Carrie Symonds (pictured together, right). Friends of Dominic Cummings (left) and Lee Cain, the Vote Leave duo who were forced to resign last week after losing a power struggle with the Prime Minister's fiancee, say that they have questioned Mr Johnson's ability - and desire - to stay in No 10. One said: 'You can smell it. It's the end of days. It's a story as old as time. The Mad Queen destroys the court.'
Carrie Symonds ‘held victory party’ inside Downing Street after Cummings ousted
Allies of Dominic Cummings say a ‘victory party’ was held in Downing Street after he left his job on Friday afternoon. The celebration was supposedly organised by Boris Johnson’s fiancée Carrie Symonds in the flat where she lives with the Prime Minister inside Number 10. Those still in the building after the day’s high drama told the Mail on Sunday they could hear the strains of a party coming through the door. Ms Symonds’ friends deny there was a ‘boisterous celebration’ as both sides continue to brief against each other.
Inside the crazy court of Queen Carrie: Boris's fiancee tried to stop Covid meeting so he would battle fake story about her DOG - then he broke rules to appoint new PR Allegra in case lover went 'effing crackers'
SIMON WALTERS: The civil war in Downing Street after the ousting of two top aides took another dramatic turn last night as a slew of sensational new claims emerged. Among them was the suggestion that Boris Johnson appointed his new TV spokesman - former BBC and ITV journalist Allegra Stratton (right) - to appease fiancee Carrie Symonds and prevent her from 'going f****** crackers'. The shocking allegations came after a weekend in which Downing Street's dirty laundry was aired for all to see, with the infighting that led to the departure of Dominic Cummings and communications chief Lee Cain laid bare. The influential aides both left No 10 on Friday, seemingly having lost a power struggle with Miss Symonds and her allies.

…BrewDog is once again trolling Dominic Cummings by renaming a beer after him.
After the Cummings scandal in May, the Scottish brewer wanted to get involved in rinsing the senior adviser.
They asked their social media followers to help them name a Cummings-themed beer.
People overwhelmingly voted for ‘Barnard Castle Eye Test’ and BrewDog released it as a special edition beer.
At the time of the beer’s release, there was pressure on Cummings to resign. He didn’t.
Fast forward a few months it finally has been confirmed that Cummings has left his position, prompting the brewer to hint at a rebrand.
The co-founder James Watt posted an image of three cans with “Cummings & Goings” written on them.

Barnard Castle Eye Test. The Sequel?
'Cummings & Goings' was a runner-up in the original contest to name the beer, along with '260 Miles' and 'Stay at Homes'.
However, the chosen name has a new meaning in the aftermath of the departure.
