Oddly, at no point does anyone say, wait a second, if Dominic Cummings

is such an amazing prophet and a genius, why did he decide to lead us into Brexit and inflict all this damage on us?

Why is he not judged by that one big scrub?

Why is Michael Gove not?

Why is Boris Johnson not?

But instead he came up with something else.

He decided he'd instead, he'd send his donors to go and live somewhere else.

And then he could get them in time.

Let me now do the boring thing.

of playing the devil's advocate, right?

Because obviously we agree on this stuff.

We were both remain voters.

We both think it was the wrong thing to do and Britain would have been better off in the European Union.

So what would they say?

What they would say, I think, and I don't know whether, and tell me whether I've misunderstood this and whether Jacob Rees-Mogg said something different.

So here are the arguments that they'd make.

First argument, I think they'd say, it wasn't all about the economics.

It was about sovereignty and control.

So they'd say it's no accident that actually Dominic Cummings' campaign was

take back control.
