A lot of my current time is being taken up with the Cummings news-story..

As usual I’m in the minority in the other forums for thinking that Dominic Cummings is simply the victim of a media driven witch-hunt..

Witch-hunt, schmitch-hunt; I think he's just another Donald Trump wannabe.

Don't really have much of an opinion on the man one way or the other, but this is a forking circus.

I wasn't aware of him until this and am pretty fed up with the non stop coverage over the past few days - it is so boring.

I thought that Brexit was bad enough as regards the media fixating on minutiae and then droning on about it ad infinitum...………..
