Ian Hislop nailed Dominic Cummings so well on HIGNFY even Piers Morgan liked it
Despite the travails of the lockdown Have I Got News For You is still going out on BBC1, just not in the way we’re used to.
So it was only to be expected that Ian Hislop might touch just a little bit on the whole Dominic Cummings saga. And it’s fair to say he did, he really did.

And there was more.
Paul Merton – “Why did Dominic Cummings feel the need to go back to work… is it too difficult to bully people on Zoom?” 🤣
Ian Hislop – “Why is a political aid making decisions about vaccines? #hignfy pic.twitter.com/7S4clNHzbG

And here’s just a little bit of what people made of that.
Best #hignfy in ages – Ian Hislop absolutely on fire, absolutely nailing that liar Cummings to the wall! Bravo, bravo! Would have loved to have had him leading the questioning in the Rose Garden last Sunday.

Ian Hislop is too good on #HIGNFY making anybody who thought any of Cummings’ story was reasonable, look like clowns.

Buying a copy of Private Eye this week, just to support Ian Hislop for tearing into Dominic C on #hignfy . He summarised the anger most of the country is feeling. Please don't let this drop.

Even Hislop’s sworn enemy Piers Morgan – with whom he has had countless run-ins over the years – enjoyed it, so it must have been good.
Enjoying Ian Hislop absolutely lacerating Dominic Cummings on #hignfy. There, I’ve said it.
