Dominic Cummings slams Tories for doing ‘f*** all’ to make Brexit work in seething EU rant | Politics | News

Former Downing Street aide Dominic Cummings has accused the Tories of doing “**** all” to take advantage of Brexit benefits. Boris Johnson’s ex top advisor also took aim at the Eurozone’s issues which he says “have got worse”. Mr Cummings said: “The Government has almost entirely not taken advantage of anything, not actually done anything differently. It doesn’t make any sense to do Brexit and then sit the way the Tories have done doing **** all and basically leaving in place a whole bunch of stupid EU things.” The controversial adviser, who ran and won the campaign to leave the EU in 2016, wrote last August about the need for a party focussed on issues like cutting immigration, closing tax loopholes for “the one percent”, investing in public services, and dramatically reforming the Civil Service. In an interview with the i paper, he said: “We were right about Brexit. If you look at the big arguments that we had in 2016… the dynamics of the EU and the Eurozone, the Euro is s**t, it’s institutionally …

Dominic West Makes Rare Comments About Aftermath of Lily James PDA Photos: ‘Absurd Situation’

Nearly four years after photos of Dominic West and Lily James‘ PDA emerged while he was married to someone else, the Affair star has made rare comments about that “absurd situation.” In an interview with The Sunday Times, the Wire alum, who recently portrayed Prince Charles on The Crown, addressed the similarities he experienced playing a character whose personal life was exposed in the press.  “I’d had a very acute understanding of what it’s like to feel the horror of your name or your photograph coming up in the newspapers. There is that dreadful freezing moment when something is being revealed about you,” he told the newspaper. “I think anyone can understand how that feels. But I’d been through it a couple of years previously and it must have informed how I approached it. That gut feeling of horror isn’t something you get inured to.” What West seemed to be referring to was in October 2020, when pictures were published of him in Rome with his Pursuit of Love co-star, James, and without a wedding ring on. In one photo, he was purported …

Nationwide TV ads starring Dominic West banned as misleading | Nationwide

Nationwide TV ads starring Dominic West banned as misleading | Nationwide

Adverts featuring the actor Dominic West as a sneering bank manager will be pulled from TV in their current form after the advertising watchdog ruled they were misleading because they wrongly suggest that the building society had not closed branches. The Advertising Standards Authority (Asa) received 281 complaints, including one from rival lender Santander, about the advert, which ran in October and November. The Nationwide campaign took a swipe at high street banks that have been closing branches. The advert showed West, who starred as Jimmy McNulty in The Wire and played King Charles in Netflix’s The Crown, as a fictional, hard-nosed bank manager intent on closing branches. He mocks customers who have lost their life savings as a “total yawn fest”, clicks his fingers for a green smoothie and says: “We’re not Nationwide are we, we’re nothing like them.” The advert ends with a shot of a Nationwide branch and a voiceover that states: “Unlike the big banks we’re not closing our branches.” The campaign also ran on the radio and in press adverts, …
