Thame’s MP calls PMs top aid ‘a figure of hate’ and calls for Independent investigation

THAME’S MP,  John Howell, is supporting calls for the Cabinet Secretary to arrange for an independent investigation into Dominic Cummings’s alleged breaking of the lockdown rules for fighting the spread of Corvid 19.

Mr Howell expressed his views in replies to two separate constituents who had written to him, and who subsequently shared the MPs replies on social media.

According to both tweeters, Mr Howell said: “Dominic Cummings is a public figure and as such is action deserve scrutiny. I said over the weekend that I would seek more information and I have now done so.

“However, Dominic Cummings has been a figure of hate for some time amongs some and we need (to) try to separate the politics and the personal in this situation. In the interest of due fairness, I believe that the only way this can be done is for an independent investigation rather than simply dismissing him, and I have supported the calls for the Cabinet Secreary to do this quickly.”
