Turns out Dominic lied (a strange concept I know) the house he drove to Durham to isolate in, doesn’t belong to his parents at all, the name on the deeds is... wait for it.... it’s good I swear... Dominic Cummings, he travelled 260 miles to his second home, which directly and very clearly breaks the rules put in motion by him and his pals.

Maybe they rent it from him? I can't stand the man, but if they live there it'll be referred to as "their" house, like private or housing association renters say it's their house.

They're landed elite Oliver - the claim was that it was their "spare cottage", not that it was their home. They're the sort of folks who would feasibly have a random "spare" house. They're the sort of people who don't have a garden, they have "grounds". I don't think they're renting anything from anyone. They may well not know what the word means .

It doesn’t matter if they rent it, he’s still the registered owner of the properties

Easter break with coincided with two family birthdays, that’s the truth, not the tripe they’ve been peddling

So he should have said "I went to the house that I own, but my parents live in"

No, because he went to an empty property that he owns, unless he did stay with his parents and that was another big lie?

Personally I think the idea that he travelled 200+ miles and then stayed a stone's throw from his parents without seeing them in person is almost as far fetched as the driving to see if it was OK to drive story.

I'm sure they slept at his cottage and that's where they stay when they visit his parents. And also, they visited his parents.

Oh for sure, the whole story is ludicrous, nothing they’re saying makes any sense whatsoever, they got together for the holidays and he should have just rode it out rather than taking us all for mugs, it just shows us the level of content he has for the little people

I think until you have a disabled child and you and your partner contract a deadly disease you can't make that call. What you can do is show some respect to those who do/have?

I have a disabled child (with significant/acute learning disabilities, when Cumming's son may well have none, it's unverified) and we did a 14 day isolation in March because my wife may well have had it (we don't know, they didn't do tests back then).

The closest family we have who can look after our disabled child is over 200 miles away in the North of England.

We didn't consider jumping in the car and driving there for even a second.

Do I pass the test, LT? Do I get the special pass that allows me to call out Cummings as a disingenuous piece of ****?

Is there any evidence of him having a disabled child?

So factual evidence of his cock and bull story from his and his wife's own words isn't good enough but some unverified rumour that his son is disabled is?

And somehow his child, if he is disabled, is a convenient excuse for what he did? Erm, no. He's far from the only one with parental responsibilities and far from the only person with disabled dependents. However, he's one of the few who wanted to shirk those responsibilities and put his family at risk for his own selfish Easter break during a pandemic.

Spin it in whatever direction you want, the man is scum.

No no you forget - you have to have responsibilities for a disabled dependent AND be the puppetmaster of a sad, scruffy, stumbling Prime Minister. THEN you can consider travelling around for childcare if you get ill.

It makes perfect sense I don't know why people are struggling with the concept.
