Cummings says Brexit could have been a mistake – and it has left people reeling

The architect of Brexit and Barnard Castle enthusiast Dominic Cummings’ interview with Laura Kuenssberg aired last night, and he royally threw the PM under the bus.

After previously flattening Matt Hancock he turned his attention to self-isolating Boris Johnson, saying the sooner his old boss leaves Number 10 the better in a blistering attack.

But it was his comments on Brexit that astonished many people.

Cummings said that anyone who was “sure about questions” like Britain’s divorce from the European Union has “got a screw loose”, adding that it is “perfectly reasonable to say Brexit was a mistake”.
