The detail in all the papers about Carrie Symonds’ involvement in this seems calculated once again – after the leak of the second lockdown – to cause maximum possible damage to Johnson. Who in gove rment would do this? pic.twitter.com/8o7LM0mrnP

WOW…. BBC reporting speculation that "other departures" may follow Lee Cain. "Potentially" Cummings and "whispers" about Brexit negotiator David Frost

Big question tonight is whether Dominic Cummings will resign in solidarity with Lee Cain – who was forced out by @BorisJohnson. Downing St insiders think that may transpire. It would be a defining moment in the history of this government

C*** who worked for a c*** attacks c*** who supports a c*** who used to work with a bunch of c***s before moving in with a newspaper owned by a c*** who employed c***s to f*** us all.
Outside, the country dies.

Meanwhile, in the dependency culture masquerading as a regional government…
The Executive’s reputation tonight lies lower than the floor of Beaufort’s Dyke as even howls of despair & derision from the public could not force ministers to finally take a decision on covid restrictions – before calling it a night just after 8pm. https://t.co/UxSB4pwRdA

So @SteveDeaceShow, I know that you're not the smartest guy on the planet, but even you should have been able to do a 2 second Google search. No, Biden did not "conjure up the 'office of the president-elect.'" Look, Trump even had a little logo made and everything. https://t.co/LaKLZMYeBS pic.twitter.com/OEx7Gb7nTm

It hasn't shown up in any of the actual lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign, though, because the attorneys would be on the hook if they knowingly lied to a court.
