Surely they have to remain respectful towards others .. both women immediately went on the offensive ‘telling’ Boris why he’d made this decision or that decision... just ridiculous

Oh I completely agree. I just find it odd to be up in arms about a tone of voice but their completely disrespectful and diabolical actions are seen as making mountains out of molehills. You're quick to call out her "disgraceful" tone of voice but not Dominic Cumming's lies.

We've already had both Dominic and Boris tell bare faced lies in regards to the situation, it's no wonder people are at the end of their tether.

Love it Zizu and hes right and wasnt the lockdown introduced to help the NHS cope ? it wasnt to stop the virus because nothing can, the DC scandal imo is very much a political game.

Marsh. 27-05-2020 08:57 PM

Nobody said lockdown was to stop the virus.

You're blindly ignoring the reasons people have taken issue and invented new ones. The lengths people will go to to convince themselves that what he did was fine. :facepalm: So fine, he saw fit to tell innumerable lies after the fact.

You'll support him and he's literally laughing at you.

I've never said I supported him, I do however think the hysteria over this now is laughable ,the media are being absolutely manic.No one said what he did was fine

Many are.
And diverting attention to the behaviour of the media doesn't change anything.

You don’t do an hour long trip to ‘test your eyesight’...take a 15min drive on your own....and why couldn’t his wife drive anyway. It’s an embarrassing cover up for his trip to a beauty spot. The rest of his story I could believe...but not this bit.
He should have resigned...

Just because you would not do something he did does not make it fake.

I'm sure you have done things if you posted on here we would be like

Well that never happened

Rustic isn't the advisor to the Prime Minister, setting rules for the people of this country to follow during a global pandemic, resulting in people dying alone and isolated, then flouting the rules and sticking two fingers up at the public at the same time.

But, yeah, excuse it.

If you have evidence he is lying let's see it?

Oh wait you don't, you just don't like him

You seem to have missed the point that REGARDLESS of whether his little story is true or false (a story he has changed several times), he broke lockdown rules EITHER WAY.

But you don't want to hear that, because you're a contrary Mary.

Just Google Dr Harries + exceptional circumstances

And read the telegraph article

It's all there for you

It doesn't relate to the question I asked you or the quoted post.

You're getting all confused by the varying different statements you're refuting. Maybe make a spreadsheet?

I mean... Either it's not true and he should be gone because he's lying, or it IS true and he should be gone because he is one of the most unfathomable stupid people I've ever heard of in my life.

(It is, of course, clearly lies unless we're abandoning all common sense)

AnnieK 27-05-2020 11:04 PM

Maybe if he relaxed the lockdown, stayed close to home and taken his shirt off whilst adhering to his advised measures LT may have agreed he was in the wrong?? The guy has single handedly broken the GBPs trust in the Gov and anyone sayong otherwise needs to take a look at the numerous polls and then argue their point in the.mirror

To be fair it’s easy to spot the disrespectful behaviour those two demonstrated today but virtually impossible to see if someone is lying ..

Cummings made some poor decisions but we can’t know for sure if he’s lied about anything in that statement .. just because you and yours detest him or wouldn’t have made the same choices it doesn’t necessarily mean that he’s lied about anything ..


Oddly enough someone last night said that his account of things sounded so bad that it had to be true as if someone was making up a story they wouldn’t have come up with the one he told .

Detest him? Not at all. Find his behaviour abhorrent? Yes. Impossible to see if someone's lying? :joker: Ok. His constantly changing story is a big indicator.

Whether you believe his tale to be true or lies is not the point. EITHER WAY he's taken the piss out of the public and continues to do so.

You would see that if you weren't playing your tired Labour v Conservative game. "You and yours" I take to mean as Labour supporters. I'll give you a hint: I didn't vote Labour. As such, your words are empty.

He isn't going to be fired, and Boris will just ride it out now until the next big story hits. I thought he should go, but clearly it's one rule for the government and another for ordinary folks. I also saw Fielding in the committee yesterday, and she didn't help the cause by blatant grandstanding

I don’t really get the claim that people are suddenly going to stop social distancing because of it, if you were staying away from family members due to them being vulnerable, you were doing that because you cared about their health, and in public you stay away from others because you care about your own, nothings changed in that respect

it will affect things like don't travel by car to work ... don't go to picturesque resorts, isolate if you have symptoms and that could end up bring the virus to communities that wouldn't get it, creating hubs for virus transmission etc.
