Losing the plot

Now we learn from the paywalled Telegraph, that Boris "Dr Jekyll" Johnson disagrees with Dominic "Mr Hyde" Cummings about when and how hard to 'whack' the BBC.

So we move from Alice in Wonderland to a Hammer Horror world, where special advisors who brief journalists are threatened with their jobs and/or fired, while the Senior Special Advisor can't keep his mouth shut in the presence of newspaper political editors. No 10 is transformed into the Grand Guignol, and there are now, extraordinarily, 'friends' of the Prime Minister briefing against 'friends' of Dominic Cummings.

If there were any wise heads left in the Parliamentary Conservative Party, they'd be popping round to say this has to stop, with the unelected one turfed out asap. But there aren't.
