Boris Johnson called Matt Hancock 'totally f****** hopeless' in WhatsApp message, Dominic Cummings says
In new explosive claims, the former Number 10 adviser claims the PM sent an expletive-laden message about the health secretary.
Dominic Cummings, who has been engaged in a weeks-long feud with Downing Street, published a lengthy blogpost that he claimed showed details of how "Number10/Hancock have repeatedly lied about the failures last year".
Off to the the House of Lords with him. Or should that be the House of f****** Lords if we wish to follow the Prime Minister's way of describing failure?

This might be another one of those things that is supposed to kill Boris off, but in fact makes him stronger. He has correctly discerned the true abilities of one of his team; and he shows himself to be "one of the lads" in his choice of linguistic intensifier. Because everybody apart from Hancock's mum does actually think that he is ******* useless.
The worst that could be said of Boris is that he allowed him to remain in post. To which the correct response is that all the other possible replacements are ******* useless as well.
I suppose Mrs Thatcher might have said something similar about her then Health Minister - Kenneth Clarke...
Then be became Chancellor!
And he smoked like a chimney!
"The worst that could be said of Boris is that he allowed him to remain in post. To which the correct response is that all the other possible replacements are ******* useless as well."
Which when you think about it could go a very long way to explaining the abilities of the Shadow Cabinet, and even Sir Ikea.
Sam - it comes across as a scapegoat move to me, whatever Hancock's abilities. Maybe a demonstration of Boris' political nous.
Scrobs - maybe she did say it, but saw him as too dangerous to be pushed out.
DJ - I agree, the abilities of the Shadow Cabinet and Sir Ikea tell us that Labour can't attract ability.
Rees-Mogg, once thought of as a shining light in the Conservative party, has like all of them rallied round the party, and Hancock is now according to him a 'successful genius'
It seems that every day there is something or somebody in politics making me despair for the future of this country.
Wiggia - such comments often come across as tongue-in-cheek signals. The trouble is, if the comment about Hancock is tongue-in-cheek then why is he there in the first place?
