Why the Cummings crisis is now all about how Johnson governs

Danny Kruger, the young Tory MP who is an old friend of Dominic Cummings and his spouse, got it right last night. The “affaire Cummings” - as the French would put it - is no longer about the most powerful aide to the prime minister and the minutiae of how he interpreted coronavirus quarantine rules differently from most of the country. Kruger argued that attacks on Cummings are attacks on Boris Johnson, because the PM has so conspicuously become Cummings’s human shield. So as another Tory MP told me - a grandee no less - this is now all about the PM himself and how he governs. It is about why Boris Johnson rates Cummings so highly, and why he needs him at the centre of his government.

Border tension: Trump offers to negotiate between India and China

 New Delhi: US President Donald Trump on Wednesday offered to negotiate between India and China and help resolve the ongoing statemale in the borders. "We have informed both India and China that the United States is ready, willing and able to mediate or arbitrate their now raging border dispute. Thank you!," Trump tweeted. The missive from the US President came close on the heels of May 5, 2020 development when Chinese troops tried to block an Indian patrol in the Pangong lake region of eastern Ladakh. Similar problems largely due to provocation from China came in the Galwan valley in Ladakh and in the Nathu La mountain pass in Sikkim. Relations between contemporary China and India have been characterised by border disputes, resulting in military conflicts — including the Sino-Indian War of 1962. In 2017, the two countries clashed at the Doklam plateau along the disputed Sino-Bhutanese border. However, things were later defused - owing to "matured diplomacy" by both sides as was asserted by the then External…

Why the Cummings crisis is now all about how Johnson governs

Danny Kruger, the young Tory MP who is an old friend of Dominic Cummings and his spouse, got it right last night. The “affaire Cummings” - as the French would put it - is no longer about the most powerful aide to the prime minister and the minutiae of how he interpreted coronavirus quarantine rules differently from most of the country. Kruger argued that attacks on Cummings are attacks on Boris Johnson, because the PM has so conspicuously become Cummings’s human shield. So as another Tory MP told me - a grandee no less - this is now all about the PM himself and how he governs. It is about why Boris Johnson rates Cummings so highly, and why he needs him at the centre of his government.

But this was an instantaneous launch window where the SpaceX Falcon rocket and its Dragon crew capsule had to leave on time or they wouldn't be able to catch the space station. There is great interest in this mission.
