As Westminster reels from Dominic Cummings' excoriating critique of the government's pandemic response, unleashed with full force during Wednesday's marathon select committee hearing, Stephen, Anoosh and Ailbhe dissect the former senior adviser's claims.

Then, in You Ask Us, they take your questions on whether the civil service – so maligned by Cummings  – is adequately represented in journalism.
