In your opinion. Plenty of packed beaches parks buses tubes. She they all get the same? I know of plenty of people that have either broken or bent the rules (as we all do). As I said if he has broken the lockdown then that is a different argument. If the perv with the binoculars has proper proof and Cummings cannot answer then he will have to resign but we need to wait for the police to waste hours and manpower to let us know the truth. When people like Watford think he should be shot if found guilty it tells me this is more politically motivated than anything else.

Im not suggesting others aren’t breaching but those people aren’t telling you to stay inside. All I’m saying is what I see and have read and the consensus is, rightly or wrongly that those ordering people to do things aren’t practicing what they preach and the already frustrated people are seriously pissed off.

Agree people will get a bit Pd but we don’t know all the facts. Let the police do their job and then moan if found guilty, until then all has done is cared for his family. I know someone who went back to Leeds from London (although not sick) because he felt it was the best place to be. Maybe we should ask him to resign?

I think you just want them to be pi22ed off. When it comes to votes you won’t get us Tories voting for Labour. Also from the 2-3 people I have spoken to they don’t seemed to worried.

nope I’m genuinely surprised the Torys have done way worse and nobody cared. I’m just going on what I’m reading in local media and lots of Tory supporters are absolutely fuming.

What’s wrong with being a Tory? Plenty of people say the are lifelong Labour and no one has a problem? They are the best party in my view and like millions of others I will vote for them.

I don’t want the imaginary bloke in your head to lose his job. Even if you buy the argument he was doing it out of protection for his family he and/or the wife have endangered others with no regard for them when it was completely avoidable.

There’s no argument. Essentially you’re saying everyone who was in a worse situation could have done their own thing but weren’t bright enough to realise that.

He was asymptomatic at the time or at least well enough to drive the lot of them 260 miles north (why was she not left behind with full-blown Corona, another issue?). They have family within a few miles. They have access to all the same routes for food delivery you and I do with the added bonus of being the ****ing Prime Minister’s chief advisor which might mean someone could have popped round a loaf of bread and some milk easily enough.

Fine if you want to find excuses for them but you’ll look like a stupid and disrespectful **** for doing so.

The guidelines are there for people to be guided by! There's a discretion where children are involved. And presumably more so where autistic children are involved.

The parents wanted assurance that if they both went down with the virus, there were relatives at hand to look after the interests of their four year old, autistic child.

Really, Watford, for someone who spends his life accusing others of being as thick as mince, you're on thin ice, mate

Nothing. There is a lot wrong with finding excuses for every blatantly corrupt thing they do.

The public are seeing he went on a lengthy journey to get help when others in the same position were told this wasn’t an option.

Nice edit Goldy.....you missed out the last paragraphS

And if the individuals do not have access to care support - formal care support - or to family, they will be able to work through their local authority hubs."

The government says that those with no one to help with getting food, prescriptions or other essentials, could get support from NHS volunteers, or should contact their local council.

I didn't edit anything. I took it from here:

Wills you know that changes every 5 minutes. It will probably be low now but after it will go back up again. People have short memories. Last week everyone was concerned with PPE and care home deaths this week its Cummings and f22k everything else.

To fair Ellers, those on the frontline are still concerned about lack of PPE and care home deaths.
 
Lol it's great seeing the spinning going on.

Even our own comedian (hes a funny man) uber thinks Cummings is a twat for his actions.

Anyway keep going boys you are entertaining me on this fine bank holiday.

Lets take the "autistic" boy and put him in the outhouse. Those surroundings will be 1,0000000% better for him. <laugh>

I'm just awaiting for the video evidence of them all dancing the macarena on cummings mums birthday

Just also seen the latest dominic cummings died in april to (having been ill). That will be the latest stick to defend him. To be honest if this was the truth i could understand it as i could believe that.

Keep spinning boys
