Suspected UK deep state operative who was a "special adviser" to UK PM Boris Johnson.

Dominic Cummings is a suspected UK deep state operative who was chosen as a "special adviser" to UKPM Boris Johnson.

David Cameron reportedly described him as a "career psychopath". On 8 August 2019, The Canary headlined an article about Dominic Cummings:"Brexit has given us an unelected bureaucrat, who married into aristocracy, pulling the strings in Downing Street."

He was appointed Chief Adviser to Prime Minister Boris Johnson in July 2019. He resigned in 2020, after was discovered breaking the government's own lockdown rules, where all "non-essential travel" was forbidden. The scandal inadvertently exposed how the ones making the rules knew "Covid" was not a threat.

Background

Cummings was born in Durham on 25 November 1971. He attended Exeter College, Oxford, where he studied under Norman Stone, graduating in 1994 with a First in Ancient and Modern History. After graduating, Cummings moved to Russia and lived there until 1997. He shared a flat with the Liam Halligan, later of GB News

He worked for a group attempting to set up an airline connecting Samara in southern Russia to Vienna in Austria which George Parker of the Financial Times said was "spectacularly unsuccessful".^{[Spooky. sounds like a cover]}. He subsequently returned to the UK.

Political career

From 2007 to 2014, he was a special adviser to Michael Gove, including the time that Gove was Education Secretary, leaving when Gove was made Chief Whip in a cabinet reshuffle.

Dominic Cummings was Campaign Director of Vote Leave, the successful campaign advocating for the UK to vote to leave the European Union in the 2016 EU Referendum. He also worked as Special Adviser to Education Secretary Michael Gove. In March 2019, he was found in contempt of Parliament for not appearing before the parliamentary committee inquiry into "false news" during the referendum campaign.

After Boris Johnson was appointed prime minister in July 2019, Cummings was appointed as Chief Adviser to the Prime Minister.

The Bill Gates network

In May 2021, at a Parliamentary joint Science and Technology Committee and Health and Social Care Committee hearing, Cummings testified to the following:

Covid

A scandal involving Cummings occurred in May 2020, after it was reported that he travelled to his parents' farm in Durham during the COVID-19 lockdowns while experiencing "COVID-19 symptoms" (a headace and fever).

The scandal inadvertently exposed how the ones making the rules knew that "Covid" was not a threat, similar to how Neil Ferguson behaved. His mathematical modelling of the "pandemic" predicted huge death rates, but breaking lockdown to visit his mistress; or how the prime minister's office held a Christmas party in 2020.

In May 2020The BBC programme Have I Got News For You? mocked Cummings breaking his own lockdown rules with the words "She won't get pregnant anyway"

In May 2020, doubt was cast on Dominic Cummings' claim he warned of the threat of coronavirus "last year". During a press conference on 25 May 2020 in which he denied he broke UK lockdown rules, Cummings said he had written about the "possible threat of coronaviruses" in 2019. "For years, I have warned of the dangers of pandemics," he told reporters. "Last year I wrote about the possible threat of coronaviruses and the urgent need for planning," Cummings added.

The PA news agency did find 15 mentions of the term "pandemic" on Cummings' blog but cached versions of the website show the only mention of the terms "coronavirus" and "SARS" were added in April this 2020.

On 14 November 2020, The Times reported that Cummings had been told to leave Downing Street by Boris Johnson, but also said that he was on garden leave and was working from home on Johnson's plan for mass COVID-19 testing. He was photographed leaving Number 10 with a storage box. Andrew Rawnsley, the Observer's chief political reporter, recorded one former cabinet minister as saying that Cummings had exited "without leaving much trace."

The whole system is fake

{{#subobject: |Has superobject=Dominic Cummings |Has objectClass=Quotation |Has author=Dominic Cummings|+sep=, |Has text=“So if you think of two roles, right, the foreign secretary in Great Britain and the private secretary in the PM' office responsible for foreign affairs, an official whose name has never been in the newspapers, that person was like 10 times more powerful and important than the secretary of state was.

And I think this is something which people just don't really realize. And it's part of how the whole system has just become fake. So you have fake meritocracy, fake responsibility, and then fake cabinet government.

When you sit in Whitehall now, right, in meetings, they are literally scripted. So when the prime minister has a meeting with ministers, what happens is that before the prime minister has that meeting, officials go into the prime minister's study and they give them a folder.

And in the folder at the front is a thing called chairman's notes. And that's the script. And that's what the prime minister reads out. And the conclusions for the meeting are in the chairman's notes drafted before the meeting happens.

Right. Well, how does the psychology of it work? Officials are happy because they have almost all the real power. The cabinet secretary is now 100 times more powerful than any cabinet minister apart from the PM. And the MPs are happy because this whole system pretends that they're in charge. So both sides are basically happy with the fake version of the government.” |Is about=Dominic Cummings,UK/Foreign Secretary,UK/Prime Minister/Private Secretary|+sep=, |Has wikipediaPage= |Has location=|+sep=, |Has publicationDate=2024 |Sourced from= |Has sourceDetails= |Has sourceTitle= |Has sourceName= |Has sourceURL=https://x.com/banthebbc/status/1862784640656019757

Accusation of closet homosexuality

In December 2011 Dominic Cummings married Mary Wakefield, the daughter of Sir Edward Humphry Tyrrel Wakefield of Chillingham Castle in Northumberland, who became commissioning editor of The Spectator magazine. In 2016, Mary gave birth to a boy.

In October 2016, the Mail on Sunday reported that the then Chief Whip, Gavin Williamson, told Downing Street that Michael Gove had had a homosexual relationship with personal and political ally Dominic Cummings, chief strategist of the Vote Leave campaign in the 2016 EU Referendum.

Criticism

Dominic Cummings is the brains behind Boris. But his dangerous ramblings amount to wanting to re-engineer society by transforming our education system based on dangerous eugenics.
