As others have noted, there are a number of exits from No. 10.
Coming out of the front door is a photo opportunity... the ****.
That’s a proper iconic image. It’s an absolute belter!
Honestly, am I so far gone that I immediately thought thd whole clear your desk/walk of shame thing was staged? Even the 'perfect' shot of him walking out the door seemed too perfect.
Nobody else feel like they're just laughing at us as we all get distracted by some amateur dramatics?
...and what would you actually leave there?
Some instant coffee?
Your favourite mug?
Some pens?
A photo in a frame?
That cardigan you took in when it was a bit parky?
the ****.
My thoughts exactly, the walk was choregraphed, I'm sure he could have gone out the back, the way he came in.

Whilst it may well be a photo op, that is also the way in and out for hairy arsed tradesmen.

And all visitors/outsiders. It looks very staged and I just assumed was, but if you're going through security that's the door you use.
From the FT...
Mr Johnson held a 45-minute meeting with Mr Cummings and Mr Cain on Friday to discuss their “general behaviour” this week, according to individuals with knowledge of the conversation.
In tense exchanges, Mr Johnson accused his aides of briefing against him and his partner Carrie Symonds and criticised them for destabilising the government in the midst of tense Brexit negotiations.
Mr Johnson showed the aides text messages that had been forwarded to Ms Symonds, who opposed Mr Cain’s appointment as chief of staff, to show they had briefed against her. He told them to get out and never return.

I can think of a couple more suitable for him.
First floor window perhaps, but much more appropriate would be the one just after the u-bend in the khazi.
Prime minister resigns.
Ought to be the headline.
Wonder what the meat puppet will do now that his handler has left.
It's nice to know that the government is making these important decisions based on playground infighting

Given that backbench gammons want him gone, he may actually be a force for good in the nasty party. Just a thought. Obviously he should have gone over the barnard nonsense, I in no way approve of him. I haven't got a clue what he does. But if he's pissing off backbench gammons he's probably doing something right.
kimbers - I posted a link to the full FT article a little earlier up there ^^^
If someone on here, with ace photoshop skills, wants to turn that photo into an actual Christmas card... I would happily buy it
Remember the stunt with the kids bike that he was lifting aloft in order to put in the back of his range rover when being doorsteps by the press after using sorting childcare as an excuse,
He loves a prop does our Dom.
Brewdog not hanging about...
Looks like we finally find out what was in his brown box - a big pile of cash...
Good day to bury this piece of news - while everyone chatters away about London going to Tier 3 and Christmas getting 'cancelled' or whatever.
That'll be the tip of the iceberg....
That’ll be the tip of the iceberg….
It's not the salary that matters, it is all the backhanders and retainers he will have been guaranteed to do his masters' bidding. That will run to millions.
Gollum update..
Gone,but not forgotten just yet (by the Good Law Project)
Cummings, always looking out for his mates the 'Public First'.
The wee piece of shite.
Follow the money
^^^^
All enabled by Brexit.
It pretty much all stems from that fateful, stupid referendum.
And anyone is surprised by this?
I’ve lobbed some unspent beer money at Good Law Project. Not sure it’ll see these ****ers off but I’m all for trying.
So, he’s back and throwing everyone under the bus.... he really is a toad.
Weapons grade bell-end.

He's got protection. He's the genius who weaponized Britain's 'stupid' to deliver them the postwar settlement on a plate for their delectation.
I learned a new word this week "walloper". It was applied to the Glasgow Rangers fans celebrating in public squares. It seems apposite here.
A complete consomethinge c
I Don’t believe a word the toadying sh1t says....
Lashing out at all and sundry, presumably to set himself up to a return to some sort of position along side his bestie Boris......
He was one of the main reasons ( imho) we ended up in the position of having lockdown 2 & 3 and spent ( wasted ) money by giving it to other establishment toadies 🤬🤬🤬🤬
He’s a lying, scheming, self-serving little shit with a truly disturbing messiah complex at work
Absolutely everything he does and says is all part of some agenda. Today’s agenda was arse-covering and the deflection of blame ahead of the inevitable public inquiry. He took the opportunity to throw little Matty even further under the bus
Standard
His problem is that, like his former (and no doubt, future) boss, he’s nowhere near as clever as he thinks he is, so his ‘agenda’ is completely transparent
He clearly likes to think of himself as some Machiavellian character, but he’s as obvious as the opening scene of Casualty
^^ As happens so often Binners types it so I don't have to.👍😁
What a dangerous little turd he is. Not Binners, Cummings.lol
I agree, binners has summed it up beautifully there
History graduate pontificating on science - what could possibly go wrong?
Still, he must be a genius - it says so in his blog 🙁
He’s there to take the heat off Johnson. Squarely blame the COVID faecal hurricane on fall-guy Hancock and the DHSC and let Johnson take the credit for the vaccine programme (which was not down to Johnson, Hancock or the DHSC but some amazing managers and clinical staff in the NHS)
You have to take your hat off to him for his bare-fade front in some ways.
He’s saying that everything should be taken out of the hands of the public sector and handed over to the private sector?
All while failing to mention the 37 billion quid spaffed on a totally ineffectual test and trace system by Serco er al, and the fact that the success of the vaccination program is entirely down to the NHS
Black is white.
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
George Orwell, 1984
If anyone thinks that today’s performance, for that is what it was, wasn’t done in full liaison with number ten they need their bumps feeling
All part of the agenda. It’s theatre
Dominic likes to get his teeth into people he considers stupid, he is not bothered by party politics and is no more a Tory than me.
He is a bit of a sociopath and has no loyalty to anyone- his i am a Genius persona is bollocks - he is a one trick pony and that trick has been hijacked by the Tories and he is pissed off.
Dominic has become commoditised and he ****ing hates it. All he has left is revenge clickbait hence his appearance and offer to spill more beans... he has after all been spurned in favour if Miss Symonds.
Nice to watch.
He is probably right in saying that a lot of public services are not run efficiently, have jobs for life mentality, no performance management etc,. Definitely the case in the NHS.
However, anyone close (very close) to a very successful major international company knows that they are not run all that efficiently either but they make enough profit for it not to be a problem.
There is a reason for that... if you run a company efficiently, it is usually a soulless, terrible place to work with that one single goal taking over everything.
@willard - that is exactly what has happened to the company I work for in the past 2 years.
He's a lying scheming shit and he has no regard for the truth. He is 100% agenda driven and he will say whatever it takes to deliver that agenda.
But wrap it in a union jack and tell the people it is going to put a stop to A.N.Other group of people and the collective, willing blindness is disturbing. He recognised early on that to 'win' he only had to appeal to morons, so that is what he does. Big, punchy, three word lies, that's all it needs. The truly disturbing thing is how easily brainwashed our society is. But I guess if the brains to be washed are small, you can get through more.
no performance management etc,. Definitely the case in the NHS.
As somebody who is currently performance managing a team member I can tell you that's defiantly not the case here.
For all his lies, unless he is seriously challenged by the press or politicians or in the courts, he will get away with it. Jenrick says just learn the lessons, 'the focus should be on the roll-out of the vaccine not an inquiry' as if it were one or the other. They will walk away from this, much richer with their futures guaranteed by IOUs, bolder and no discernible accountability. Corruption at the top invites venality throughout the system, keep MPs quiet with an extra £200pw (expenses like paper and computers, the £180k pa expenses is just for the duck houses and Apple ear phones). It depresses me that the prevalence of ignorance, fear and naivete just allows them to carry on, with increased support from people whose lives are ruined. We need to conquer deference.
Jenrick
A full-on, laughing behind his hand, crook.
