Cummings to leave No 10 with immediate effect [View all]
Boris Johnson's chief adviser Dominic Cummings has left Number 10 with immediate effect, BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg says.
Mr Cummings spoke to the PM earlier on Friday and it was decided it was best for him to go immediately after days of turmoil, our political editor said.
The former Vote Leave supremo had been at the centre of a power struggle in Downing Street in recent days.
The PM's director of communications Lee Cain has also left.
Mr Cummings was seen leaving No 10 a short while ago carrying a box.

Oh well. Perhaps his father-in-law's estate has an opening for a scarecrow.
Much whooping here: #DominicGoing
