Gillian Keegan’s statement on the Dominic Cummings fiasco displays her mastery of the art of using many words to say nothing at all. We are still none the wiser as to whether she believes Cummings broke the government’s own lockdown rules, and we don’t know whether she thinks his position as a government advisor is still tenable.

Of course, those of us who have followed her actions (for want of a better word) in this constituency over the last few years recognise the pattern: career before constituents. Chichester Labour Party encourages anyone with serious concerns about this situation to continue to write to her, or write to us and we will take up your points.
