Piers Morgan has lashed out at Boris Johnson after the Prime Minister supported controversial Government aid Dominic Cummings during Sunday evening’s daily coronavirus briefing.
Mr Johnson addressed the ongoing controversy surrounding 48-year-old Mr Cummings following allegations he travelled 250 miles from London to Durham during lockdown while suffering symptoms to seek childcare.
He backed his advisor and said Mr Cummings had “stuck to the rules”, acted “legally and responsibly” while visiting his family, and had acted “on instinct”.
The backing by the Prime Minister, while perhaps not surprising, was met with a furious backlash – with Piers Morgan slamming the politician.
