Is Nick Hancock seen by the PM as hopeless for his handling of the pandemic response?
Quote:
Dominic Cummings has published expletive-laden messages apparently from Boris Johnson, in which the PM brands the health secretary "hopeless".
It is the latest salvo in a bitter war of words between Mr Cummings and Matt Hancock over the handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
The PM's former aide accuses Mr Hancock of trying to rewrite history at a select committee session last week.
And he claims Mr Hancock and the PM had "repeatedly lied about failures".
"If No 10 is prepared to lie so deeply and widely about such vital issues of life and death last year, it cannot be trusted now either on Covid or any other crucial issue of war and peace," writes Mr Cummings.
