How has De Marco been allowed to get away with attending when I wouldn't class that as essential travel?
The only thing I can think of is that he was classed as attending work. This one is probably significant. Why have a meeting in person when you can do it via Zoom?
Lol on another thread you say all those breaking the lockdown rules should be shot and here you are now asking who cares.
The only thing I can think of for the reason why he was there Was to judge the value of the Business and the potential financial loss for Ashley
Apparently, the bar, has an exemption. Meetings that can only be carried out face to face are exempt.
are you saying, anyone that don't trust Zoom or telephone calls or was Ashley / Penfold/ De Marco handing over sensitive material ?
It could be an exchange of sensitive material, or De Marco had something to show them in person and needed to discuss. Or, a compromise. This sounds more and more significant.
