Dominic Cummings accuses 'interfering' Carrie of 'trying to appoint clowns to key positions' and pulling Boris's strings': Ex aide admits he considered ousting PM in coup within DAYS of 2019 election because it was 'either her or me'
Dom is no fool. He knows the explosive nature of these messages, and he knows that, taken out of context, they appear cruel and callous The UK PM's former chief aide unleashed his latest blizzard of complaints about his old boss during a chat with the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg tonight
SARAH VINE: Brutal, disloyal and obsessive... My old friend Dom seems hellbent on destroying his former boss - whatever the cost
SARAH VINE: I have known Dom on and off for many years, almost two decades, in fact. He is a man of great political passion and possesses a brilliant mind. Too brilliant, sometimes. Intellectually, he can throw shade on almost everyone he encounters: you have to be seriously on the ball to keep up with him, even when he's half a bottle of wine down at dinner. If you don't know him, his direct manner can sometimes be mistaken for aggression. It's not, actually; but it's true, he doesn't suffer fools gladly.
'I should have resigned or come clean over Barnard Castle': Dominic Cummings finally admits his 'driving to test his eyesight' defence WASN'T the whole truth
The PM's former chief adviser said he did not ignore the rules during his trip to Durham but said should have come clean.
'Boris was putting his own personal politics above people's lives': Cummings says PM cared more about appeasing 'Tory MPs who had lost their minds' than the public's health over lockdowns ;
The PM's former chief adviser claimed Mr Johnson of wanting to appease Tory MPs 'who had lost their minds' than the public's health over UK lockdowns.
HENRY DEEDES: Last night, we saw Dominic Cummings do a sit-down interview with the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg. Yet it wasn't quite the pyrotechnics show he might have hoped for. Most of his gripes sounded like nothing more than chateau-bottled sour grapes. Narcissism central. By the end, it was hard not to conclude that this was someone tantalisingly close to being off his rocker
