Oliver Dowden says ‘former prime minister will give a full account of himself’ at Covid inquiry as he defends Johnson’s leadership
Here is the clip of Oliver Dowden telling Kay Burley on Sky News this morning that what Dominic Cummings said about Boris Johnson at the Covid inquiry was “very partial”.
Burley invited Dowden to accept that what Johnson was revealed yesterday to have said about Covid being “nature’s way of dealing with old people” was “shocking”. But Dowden wouldn’t say that. He said he did not “recognise” much of the evidence given yesterday, and said he rejected in many respects what had been said.
