One government official who is close to Cummings claimed he was employing a “Jose Mourinho strategy”, a reference to how the former Manchester United and Chelsea football manager would often deliberately make inflammatory public interventions to attract media attention to himself and relieve pressure on his players.
yeah not convinced this is a strategy as such - certainly not a successful one

Good time to point out that Mourinho hasn't won a league title in 7 years.

I know I always say how fucking awful Peston is, but Jesus fucking Christ
Lots of people think Cummings wants to blow everything up. For what it is worth, I think he sincerely believes that a second referendum would lead to much greater civil disorder and damage to the fabric of UK than a no-deal Brexit. He may be wrong, possibly grotesquely...— Robert Peston (@Peston) September 28, 2019

The Left is most certainly not behind the triggering of Margaret Hodge in Barking nor was it the result of antisemitism. I’m told it happened because members on the Right had expected her to retire & want an MP who actually lives there, not one who has always lived in Islington— Jon Lansman (@jonlansman) September 29, 2019

Possible explanation
As we drain the red wine, Lansman talks of some of the hobbies he would like to indulge upon retirement, including a musical taste that ranges from jazz to British folk. A few months ago he went to watch The Grateful Dead in Mexico alongside other bearded beatniks of a certain age

"40 new hospitals". good to see the BBC just copy-pasting conservative party press releases earlier - at least they're now deleted it
It's money to upgrade six existing hospitals over the next 5 years as well as some money to develop plans to upgrade a further 36 at some point in the future. It's not a promise for "40 new hospitals."— Adam Bienkov (@AdamBienkov) September 29, 2019
