    Since driving a couple of hundred miles in spite having a dose of Covid just so you can attend your mothers' birthday party doesn't constitute as "doing something wrong" anymore, who's up for storming Downing Street tomorrow so we can have a few lamp post ornaments along Whitehall?

    Because the Tory tribalists haven't been ****ish enough, now they're saying those calling for Cummings to go are as bad as those people who bullied Caroline Flack into suicide

    **** off. Just **** off

    After yesterday's bait, did the Tories not suspect that there was more to come with the Cummings story?
    I could be wrong, but I suspect that there's a follow-up to the 2nd trip that he took.
    Time will tell, I guess.

    I read this.......the civil servant responiblefor increasing the state pension age to 67 is retiring at age 61,with a 1.8 million pension pot.
    He will receive 85,000 a year and lump sum of 245,000.
    He is Sir Robert Devereux permanent secretary for Dept for Works and Pensions.

    My Questions are....why isn't he locked up......and did he get a Knighthood for this bit of genius?

    It's actually a disgrace that a guy running an important organisation like that gets paid less per year than many footballers get in a month.

    Hong Kong is rioting again, which I think we can look forward to in England in the summer.
    Everyone already wearing masks should help it along.

    A complete list of Dominic Cumstain's excuses
    - "I did it for the sake of my child"...which fails to explain why he didn't leave his offspring with his brother-in-law two streets away
    - "I did it because I care for my family"...which fails to explain why brought two cases of Covid to his mother's doorstep (and, by complete coincidence, on her birthday...)
    - "My uncle died"...because that's more important than the thousands of funerals nobody has been able to attend for the past three months
    - "My child is autistic"...which somehow he neglected to mention beforehand
    - "I did it because I feared for my eyesight"...because if you fear for your eyesight, jumping in the car and going for a 30 mile drive with your wife and child is obviously what you do

    What's next, the dog ate his homework?

    Oh, and here's a question nobody's asked...

    ...meanwhile, on the bootlicker side of the fence, best not ask how many hundred funerals people have been unable to attend nor travel the length of the country to be with their families, eh?

    ...anyway, back to the human race

    Most people wish it was still "British". They don't like the communist doctrine. No body does. Communists too,unless you've got a good government job.
