BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg challenged Dominic Cummings on his Rose Backyard press convention, saying to the previous aide that what he instructed the media was not 100% true.

He says the entire state of affairs across the press convention grew to become a “enormous, enormous mess”.

He instructed Laura Kuenssberg he ought to have simply resigned and never stated something, or “come clear about the entire thing”.

The prime minister’s former chief adviser drove from London to Durham through the coronavirus lockdown after his spouse developed Covid signs.

In a press convention within the Downing Avenue Rose Backyard afterwards, he stated to the media he believed he had acted “fairly” and throughout the legislation.
