In the most read, but not the article title.
'Cummings accused of leaks and beaming Prince Louis'
Where did he beam him to? Hopefully directly to his nursery. I wouldn't trust that shifty chap with a teleporter device

No, because it's 'correct' in the article - it just looks odd when it appears on the 'most read' list on the right of other pages. It may have dropped off the list now of corse

The FT has a piece about how Dominic Grieve (former attorney general, but thrown out of the party by Boris for not being a brexiter) has described his former boss as "a vacuum of integrity". And about how the bill for Carrie's "gold-plated" wallpaper is driving Boris round the bend..

To which, some inexcusably non-PC wag in the FT comments section has appended the utterly wicked suggestion that Boris is cosying up to James Dyson because the words "bag-free vacuum" have a sudden nostalgic resonance. :D

In BoJo's case though, this is an oxymoron as any vacuum is almost immediately filled - phhuuuuttt [sound of punctured vacuum]. Life is never bag-free and abhors a vacuum [Aristotle].
Remember the late Sir James Goldsmith's dictum: "When you marry your mistress you create a job vacancy".
