He is a political appointment. His value is political. So long as Boris calculates his political value remains greater than the political cost of keeping him on, he stays.
Meantime, this unending game of Where’s Dominic is somehow even more tedious than lockdown. Or maybe for some folks it does relieve the boredom. Who knows, who cares.
That’s my 2p anyway.

This is where it could get interesting - ironically one of the best minds for how it plays out in the public is likely Dom himself.
Do the public get annoyed about it? Unsurprisingly, on this forum the usual Brexit divide and Conservative/other divide has largely held up regardless of the evidence presented by both sides, however we’re all fairly entrenched characters. There have been critical articles in the Times, Telegraph and Spectator on top of the usual suspects. A number of Conservative MPs said he should go and rumours of some of the Cabinet miffed at tweeting support one day to look stupid the next.
Maybe some quiet time in the private sector would do him good, or does anyone know of any other elections on the go this year that could benefit from his... insight?
