It is incredible to take a step back and think that at such a critical moment - a week that could have profound consequences for the future of the UK and Europe - the prime minister has lost two of his most important aides and been distracted by one of the most vicious Downing Street battles that Westminster-watchers can remember.

Yes, the Cummings Diaries would make a great Christmas present! Will they reveal he did in fact make a second trip to Durham, thereby stabbing BoJo in the back who said he had seen evidence proving he hadn't? (I don't think he did but it would drop BoJo in it if he proved he had and get the book valuable publicity.)
He does seem to have a knack when describing Ministers with the terms "thick as mince” and “as lazy as a toad” deployed to describe David Davis. He could probably do a good book-signing tour, coinciding with party conferences.

I suspect he will work in something behind the scenes, likely tech-related, as oppose to pundatory. You want more likeable personalities as media pundits.
