Prime Minister Boris Johnson got into the spirit of National Biscuit Day today by taking tea with a jammie dodger in Downing Street.

Mr Johnson enjoyed his half-baked treat as the rest of Britain choked on the crumbs.

Political reporter Lorraine Fisher, 34, explained: “This week has proved more than any other that Dominic Cummings is a jammie dodger.

“Quite how he has kept his job is anyone’s guess, but that’s what comes from hobnobbing with the right people.

“I suppose it’s one rule for the rich tea and another for the rest of us.”
