'He acted legally and with integrity': Johnson straps himself to embattled aide Cummings | BevanShields

Furious Tory MPs publicly called on Cummings to resign or be fired on the basis the saga has undermined public confidence in strict social distancing rules and distracted Downing Street from managing the coronavirus outbreak, which has so far killed at least 37,000 people in the United Kingdom.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said the Cabinet Office should launch an inquiry, but stopped short of demanding Cummings resign or be sacked."This was a test of the Prime Minister and he has failed it. It is an insult to sacrifices made by the British people that Boris Johnson has chosen to take no action against Dominic Cummings," he said.

He wields huge influence over Downing Street and has irritated senior cabinet ministers who believe he has too much power for an unelected official."Today’s newspapers are a disaster," said former Conservative minister Steve Baker.
