Coronavirus

I wonder if Cummings downloaded any track and trace apps

I'm 38 for just over 2 hrs

Happy Birthday , hope you have a good one

My daughter is a LD nurse at a Low Secure wing of a hospital full of autistic teenagers and adults. Horrific tales of how their parents and loved ones have not been able to visit them because of Covid. This latest ****e about Cummings' son isn't just clutching straws - it's clutching straw men.

Some mugs have bought it ... hook, line and stinker

 

[Number 1 Jasper]

It wouldn't take much for someone to check CCTV footage of a particular location and time, imagine that contradicting his mobile tracking. You would have him by the bolloxs then.

True .

They’ve not bought it, they’ve just grabbed it like a fig leaf. There’s a distinct difference.

I think it's probably a case of both. Naturally left wing commentators, by that I mean certain media outlets such as those involving Rachel Shabi, while I accept at the same time Cummings does deserve dogs abuse.

I get he had his reasons, I absolutely get it. BUT, he is not the only person in a population of 70 million people that the guidelines were wrote for. Everything from people not being able to see their grandkids, through to attending the last moments of loved ones. Let's not forget those guidelines, have yet to see the fall out of lost jobs and financial hardship, and the consequences of that.

I will only ever defend something, if I whole heartedly can counter argue a case and believe in it, as I have done with many things on this forum. The fact is, I can't counter argue it, and I'm quite angry about it. So my personal opinion is he should be fired and Boris has disastrously got this wrong, this is not a time for comradeship.

I hasten to add, I'm not saying the guidelines were wrong, I'm not saying he didn't have a genuine reason, but Dominic Cummings family was not the only family who may have sufffered while others did suffer during this crisis.

Cummings was at the forefront of the message to the British public, I reckon we could potentially be seeing a number of appeals now, on fines issued during the pandemic, and some may be cases very similar to that of Dominic's. I believe someone is already challenging the lockdown on being illegal, this is not going to go away, I hope Boris has his tin hat ready, because he fooking well is going to need it.

Indeed, if he's not guilty of breaking the rules because of a get-out clause, he's guilty of writing ****e rules with such an easy clause to wriggle out of.

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

Maybe he left his Mobile in Durham when he went to the castle ?

I'm sure he'll have taken a burner with him.

There was no get out clause.

The instructions were clear, if you or a member of your family shows symptoms you and your entire stay at home.

IF both parents had become incapacitated then safeguarding measures would have been taken for their child.

What he chose to do, was decide that he’d rather drive the length of the country to apparently stay at a separate house on his parents farm, and this whilst his wife apparently already had the virus. To suggest that this was somehow within the rules, is demonstrably untrue.

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

Gavin Williamson this morning.

Dominic Cummings has assured the PM that he broke no rules or laws.

Are you guilty of anything Dom?

Not that I'm aware of.

That’s that then. Justice delivered. Nothing to see here. Have we got a decent dead cat for later?

Yeah that’s how it works

Fixed.

And the " Child care " Amounted to his Sister getting the shopping and putting it outside their Front Door .

And waving to their poor, autistic babby through the window, don't forget that.

The kid needed familiar surroundings so taking him out of his home to stay in the outhouse in Durham was perfectly logical.

Well it was only 250 miles …..

Do we know if his sister, did buy them any shopping during their isolation, has that question been asked/answered?

I thought I read somewhere that yes she had done that , but where I read it I cannot remember .

Really ?

 

[Archers Road]

Well she's agreed to take him to school as of next week so I'm clocking that up as a win. He's very excited about it too.

I bet he is, yeah. Young kids need school for all sorts of reasons, not just reading and writing etc. They need to be around other kids and away from their mums and dads.

 

[Tobes]

Durham chief of Police announces Cummings investigation ...

Only the Attorney General has already tweeted that he’s completely innocent.

That’s just how far down the rabbit hole we’ve now gone in this country.

 

[brb]

Quite an important factor when you think about it. What food did she give them, how much and where from. Unless the Cummings family survived on fresh air and water.
