Cummings on chatty rat/lockdown leak: If Newman is confirmed as the leaker then I will have to fire him, and this will cause some very serious probs with Carrie as they’re best friends” https://twitter.com/dominic2306/status/1385623312106233856
Cummings on the lockdown leak. Says PM tried to block inquiry: “I told him that he could not possibly cancel an inquiry about a leak that affected millions of people, just because it might implicate his girlfriend’s friends”

Adds PM “knows that I was not the source of the leak”
And on the flat refurbishment: “I told him I thought his plans to have donors secretly pay for the renovation were unethical, foolish, possibly illegal and almost certainly broke the rules on proper disclosure”
Cummings calls again for an “urgent parliamentary inquiry” into govt conduct over Covid crisis
“Issues concerning Covid and/or PM’s conduct should not be handled as No 10 has handled them over past 24 hrs”
