Dominic Cummings has resigned as a special advisor to the PM….. That gives him carte blanche to post/publish anything as a private citizen to influence the election. Something he couldn't do as a SpAd.

Sturgeon, Corbyn, Swinson, Farage all step up for @afneil interviews. Johnson’s team “in ongoing discussions”. I’m surprised as I thought the BBC had nailed down all the leaders as part of the week-long programming #GE2019 https://t.co/HLG4gqigbE

ANALYSIS: No smoking gun in US-UK trade talks ‘dossier’ but it allowed Labour to put the risk of NHS "sell-off" in voters' mind. Can’t beat Johnson on Brexit, Corbyn’s best attack line is to hit Johnson on the NHS & on trusthttps://t.co/weoajfyZVn

If there was no Sep, 9 call, don’t we then have flat-out collusion by Sondland and Trump to deceive Congress and the public? And why go to such lengths to invent a call unless they thought it necessary as part of an effort to cover up serious wrongdoing? https://t.co/LFgEiW3eJf
