Downing Street drama reflects the ‘dysfunction’ of Britain, says Gordon Brown
GORDON BROWN said today that the Downing Street drama over Dominic Cummings reflects the “dysfunction” of the whole country in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The former prime minister’s comments came after PM Boris Johnson gave special adviser and chief of staff Dominic Cummings his marching orders on Friday.
Mr Brown said that the Downing Street infighting was likely to continue as there were too many factions in the Conservative Party.
