Dominic Cummings PM’s top adviser broke lockdown rules TWO times

Its disgraceful. People who died were made to die alone, their families had to grieve alone whilst isolating, old and infirm members of family were left to rot in care homes that were infested with the virus, people have lost their livelihood, friends, kids couldn't go to school, see their grandparents, people had cancer treatments and life saving operations cancelled.....but yeah Cummings was more than entitled to drive just on the off chance,he possibly, might get sick and couldn't look after his kid. Sounds fair to me

and yet thousands of parents were in the exact same position and told to ask the NHS for assistance when they could have used relatives. The government message was very clear, stay at home, do not visit relatives, do not drive

[smudgie]

He drove to the castle. And drove to Durham, that’s TWO journeys

Barnard Castle is actually a town in County Durham.
He basically had a thirty minute test drive from where he was staying to see if he had enough strength for the longer journey.
Not too sure of the rights of wrongs of the test drive, as his intention was to drive back to work.
Never been a DC fan but thought he gave a good account of what he thought was ok.

They weren't exceptional circmstances, the lockdown guidance gave clear indications of what to do during those circumstances. None of which included driving across the country and visiting relatives.

Okie dokie....personally, I wouldn't risk my family by sending my possibly infected child to them....neither would I have expected anyone to "take him off my hands". If he got sick I would have taken care of him. By the time they were showing symptoms the likelihood is he would also have been at least asymptomatic....no way would I have driven him 200+ miles away to be looked after by family.

It was against the rules to drive ti a destination for exercise.. exercise was supposed to start at your home and finish at home..it didn't include jumping in a 4×4 to travel to the park.

[The Slim Reaper]

No..

When they left for Durham, he didn't have 2 sick parents, but he did have an auntie less than an hour away.

As the child wasn't in any need for emergency care, both journeys are irrelevant, but if you had to arrange a child to be cared for in an emergency, it would definitely make sense to take up the one nearby, as opposed to the other end of the country.

[AnnieK]

Did he?

If the exercise that you were just talking about to Slim having to start and end at your own front door...he must have done :shrug:

[rusticgal]

I think his account was believable and acceptable....but the castle trip wasn’t...which then makes you question the rest of it...

Let’s see how it pans out...but I don’t think it will go away. If it doesn’t Boris will need to get rid of him then we can focus on what’s important.

It would be the sensible option but perhaps after waying things up, going to Durham and the sanctuary of the farm was best all round for this particular family.

His wifes sister lives nearby. Regardless, no one else in the country had the option to go where they wanted as long as it was for childcare. We're not goldfish with 20 second memories, we knew this, right?

[The Slim Reaper]

His house wasn't a target. It has been over the last couple of days for obvious reasons but it wasn't then. Why would his sisters house become a target for anything if they were just helping him care for his child?

The press and commoners didn't all hunt for Boris' children when he was ill. Although if the PM doesn't know where they are, not sure we'd have found them either.

[AnnieK]

No...he said his normal childcare was not an option.

I assumed that to mean a nanny or similar as they were classed as non essential...might be wrong though

Yeah but that was because of his actions no one elses ??

[Liam-]

No...he said his normal childcare was not an option.

And then he said he didn’t even contemplate asking anybody else, including his London based family, he chose to do what he did because he wanted to, not because he needed to

[Liam-]

Him and his wife are proven liars, it’s not a stretch of the imagination that he lied his entire way through that briefing

[rusticgal]

I assumed that to mean a nanny or similar as they were classed as non essential...might be wrong though

And they get criticised for it..

People are getting slated for being on the beach, people were slated for having street parties on V day. If you broke the rules you would be slated too but if someone who made the rules broke them then they will get more slack for it. You can't make rules and get them fined if you're doing the same thing. The mods who makes the rules would be more criticised if they broke the rules, teachers who does stuff that students gets detentions for will get more criticised. It's unprofessional

[Kazanne]

Hes still not going anywhere, Johnson is in his pocket for whatever reason and his hands are tied. They're not even bothering to come up with more than a flimsy excuse. Some very gullible people will buy it, most people won't, but it won't make any difference. They don't actually care.

Well Done Dom
sorting those Press Out

Read the last couple of posts in the scottish minister thread, my brother :smug:

[rusticgal]

And they get criticised for it..

People are getting slated for being on the beach, people were slated for having street parties on V day. If you broke the rules you would be slated too but if someone who made the rules broke them then they will get more slack for it. You can't make rules and get them fined if you're doing the same thing. The mods who makes the rules would be more criticised if they broke the rules, teachers who does stuff that students gets detentions for will get more criticised. It's unprofessional


Yes they get slated...not as individuals though. I understand that in his position he can’t afford to make an ill thought judgement as he made the rules. Two things don’t make sense with his story which makes the whole debacle questionable.
1. Not letting the PM know...an e-mail would have been an option.
2. The castle visit...not believable.

Feel free to criticise him when he does break the law.

Only if they break the law whilst working in government, do we have a right to criticise them? Do you want to rethink that?

That isn’t hounding his family

That's because normally someone in an unelected position like that would resign immediately or be let go. He's "had" to make a speech because they have to find some way to justify keeping him on, because he's a ****ing Death Eater and our Prime Minister isn't allowed to fire him. Let that sink in for a second, Parmy. It's scary stuff.

If he’d apologised and admitted he was wrong as soon as the story first came out then maybe I’d have some sympathy. Instead he’s arrogantly dismissed people’s concerns and been defended by the government, and implied that his actions can be excused as he was only being a ‘good parent’ when thousands of ordinary parents and families have had to make huge sacrifices. It makes me so angry.

[Greg!]

Also why does no one seem to be bringing up the fact he returned to work on the SAME day he went home and found out his wife was ill? Don’t the rules say you have to self isolate right away?

None of this makes it ok. The rules are if anyone in your household displays coronavirus symptoms, you should self isolate at home for 14 days. He went back to work on the same day (then drove 260 miles to Durham as we all know)

The guidance was if you displayed symptoms of coronavirus to isolate with the rest of your household for 14 days, not guess whether it might be another virus altogether and go into work anyway.

That’s my take on things .. I have seen reports and indeed have my own thoughts on Cummings and his ‘quirky’ ways and the fact that he’s unpopular because he’s not a people person.. but he’s not actually hurt anyone and if he wasn’t such an important component to the conservative cause then Labour wouldn’t be so keen on getting him out .

I think all those crammed in local parks and beaches or those who’ve hardly changed their ways since day one have done far more harm

She was, yes, which is still awful. However, she was also (quite blatantly) in the midst of a mental health breakdown. Are you suggesting that Dom has been struggling with his mental health? I haven't seen any suggestion or indication of that? Although... getting your kid in a car and driving 30 miles to test your eyesight isn't exactly sane so maybe :worry:.
