I guess the Tory government and the man himself had hoped that the Dominic Cummings saga would have been ended after his incredibly boring and weird press conference on Monday, but it looks like it’s destined to rumble on at least a little bit longer after ‘The Daily Star’ decided to release today’s edition with the quite franky ridiculous front page you can see below.

The main talking point was a pull out Dominic Cummings mask that meant you could do whatever you want during the lockdown, but there were also contributions from the police telling you that you shouldn’t go on a thirty mile drive to test your eyesight, as well as a guest appearance from Stevie Wonder and a bit asking about how anyone could keep a straight face supporting him. Here’s a breakdown, as well as some of the best reactions:

Very pleased to see lots people recognise the brilliance of the @dailystar front page today. Very funny whilst at the same time brutally cutting. pic.twitter.com/2nw1HkMzTB

It’s not often I praise the Daily Star for it’s content, but this is a truly wonderful front page. pic.twitter.com/OEfgiGWKrM

I don’t even bother looking at the Daily Star front page. It rarely bothers covering a political story. Tomorrow’s front page should worry the government. Not because it reveals anything new about the Cumming’s saga, but because generalised ridicule threatens their authority. pic.twitter.com/PWWqFXXxUW

The Daily Star usually has tits on its front page but this time they’ve settled for one. pic.twitter.com/XSNLV033r3

Having found myself agreeing with Piers Morgan, which I’m still trying not to think about …. The Daily Star drops this front page.
2020 needs to stop throwing all these curve balls!
The Daily Star!
That’s normally only good enough to line a cat litter tray. pic.twitter.com/kHNQ2uEfSi— Buddha aka Me 🌈🏳️🌈 #NHSLove #TransIsBeautiful (@Buddha_aka_me) May 27, 2020
Say what you want about the Daily Star but this front page is touched by genius. The Stevie Wonder reference is brilliant too. pic.twitter.com/qkoTBg4cQX

Genuinely never thought I’d see this. Dominic Cummings – a man who hates the spotlight and simply wanted to control the agenda from behind the scenes, being slammed on the front page of the bloody Daily Star, of all papers.

I mean all of them kinda have a point don’t they – who ever would have imagined that ‘The Daily Star’ would bee receiving praise for their cutting criticism of the government at the beginning of the summer of 2020, even a year ago? Nobody that’s who, but these are strange times that we’re living in. They’re only going to get more bizarre as well.
