DOMINIC CUMMINGS has stepped up his criticism of Boris Johnson’s suitability for office, calling Downing Street “a branch of the entertainment industry.”
The Prime Minister’s ex-chief aide used his website on Monday to launch fresh attacks on Number 10, claiming if the public saw the way it operates, “everyone would sell everything and head for the bunker in the hills.”
“It is impossible to describe how horrific decision-making is at the apex of power,” he said, adding it is “generally the blind leading the blind.”
The former Brexit campaigner also warned that there was no drive to tackle big issues as “the PM literally believes that focus is a menace to his freedom to do whatever he fancies today, hence why you see the opposite of focus now.”
Mr Cummings, who left Downing Street at the end of last year amid reports of an internal power struggle, made the comments in an online question-and-answer session to paying subscribers.
His latest barbs come after he published WhatsApp messages from early in the Covid-19 pandemic in which the PM described Health Secretary Matt Hancock as “totally fucking hopeless.”
