Noting the cited @DailyMailUK article (based on Mary Wakefield& #39;s piece in the @spectator on 25 April) repeatedly states Cummings was at their *London* home:

(I">https://twitter.com/piersmorg... can& #39;t say I always agree with @piersmorgan, but he does sometimes hit the nail on the head.)

It seems I& #39;m not the only one following the inexorable logic of @BorisJohnson& #39;s, @MattHancock& #39;s and other Cabinet ministers& #39; defence of #Cummings& #39; actions:

I do like it when journalists with domain expertise point out the pertinent facts: https://twitter.com/ShaunLintern/status/1264143500511186944?s=19">https://twitter.com/ShaunLint...
How have we arrived at a place where @number10cat is plainly speaking more sense than @10DowningStreet itself?!

WRT earlier tweet on #ratios, someone really should give the Cabinet some top-up @Twitter training...
...while @MattHancock & @oliverdowden (the former and current & #39;digital& #39; Secretary) are clearly a lost cause, maybe @AlokSharma could retrieve things, as he builds up a following?
The one anomaly ( #BubbleEffect?) appears to be @Jacob_Rees_Mogg who - while toeing the party line, using the same logic and even some of the same words - managed to dodge the same #ratio as his colleagues.
Fascinating.
Fascinating.
Until Cummings has become goings, this [Thread] - like this car crash of a news cycle for the Gov& #39;t - rumbles on.
