Given your apparent stance, are you seriously supporting what this little creature did?

Just to add that since the lockdown, I have adhered to advice; as a responsible person. So for you to suggest that if I had been 'followed around someone could point out my social misdoings' (it's one word by the way), is completely incorrect.

You really are a sad little Tory sycophant, aren't you. For you and your ilk, they just can never do any wrong.

You were bragging about it on here while telling everyone it was just flu

"Who cares" was his response when questioned. Probably the same as those caught on the beaches and in the parks.

I'm not getting in to a political argument but someone of his status in the pandemic should be held to account.
At the end of the day though he is only an aide and the cynic in me asks what will stop him advising in the future albeit out of the public view?
If he does the right thing and resigns he will be off the payroll/gravy train.

The Tories would have to find a way of paying him if he continued in his advisor role. If he goes that's it.
If he publicly 'resigns' how will we know for sure he is no longer advising in the background ?

No10's strategy is bizarre. It would have been better to get Cummings to apologise, but back him by saying it was not a resigning issue (although it should be).

Instead, they're trying to claim that he did not breach the rules, and they're forcing ministers to come out publicly in his defence. They've just lost all moral authority.

It's absolutely baffling why they've allowed this to become such a problem. It just goes to show important Cummkngs is to this government.

Even the Spectator, which employs Cummings’ wife, has published an article saying that he has to go.

When this all blows over, the OED needs to include No10's handling of this as a definition of 'doubling down'.

On a different thread you seem to be having difficulty in knowing the difference between
right & wrong & claim it to be political . Like those terms didnt come out of politics .

I think your wrong is very wrong where the lefts wrongs are sometimes right .

Not keen on eitherof those two men but no need to use an abbreviated swear word like that to express your distaste of both of these controversial government advisors. Dominic Cummings role as a government chief advisor must be really under question now after making this trip. You cannot really be having one set of rules for the average everyday folk of the uk and another set of rules for those who are rich, famous or influential etc.

New witnesses cast doubt on Dominic Cummings's lockdown claims

eyewitness says top No 10 aide left isolation to go 30 miles to popular tourist town


https://www.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... own-claims

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/ ... n-22075857

So it appears that the vile little sychopath has lied yet again. :o

I wonder what sh!te he must have ready to spill on Spaffer Johnson and his :clown :clown :clown if they were to grow some balls and sack him?

This is truly the most inept, incompetent, deceitful, untrustworthy Tory Govt. in our history.

Anyone who believes otherwise, must be either brainwashed; or simply lying to themselves.

The government must be stupid if they can’t see that this at least undermines their policy. As the rules on this are vague and anyone who didn’t do want he did and their family then got I’ll has a right to be angry. I have a daughter and didn’t know this was the policy.

So now Cummings and his lies have been exposed. He broke the travel ban. At least four times.

The Tories are attempting a cover up and telling lies and half truths to protect Cummings and conceal the fact that they knew all about it.

The Tories have launched a cordinated campaign to try and save the lying little rat. In the process they devalue any credibility they had left.

The Tories have proved they are not fit to lead this nation.

The bots had to go quiet. They've been made to look like fools who have been used to protect a lying Tory rat.

It's 60/40 He goes after that revelation. Cummings put lives at risk.
