And honestly what can they say about it? You can't stand up there telling everyone what they can and can't do and then turn around and do the opposite yourself, you lead by example. The "do as i say not as i do" kind of mentality will only breed resentment in people

Tbf I still don't think this is true; people who are serious about it will keep doing it for as long as they feel necessary, people who are inclined to get bored of it and say "**** the lockdown" will do that when their patience runs out. I don't personally think that's linked to public figures or what anyone else is doing. They may use it as the excuse / justification, but they'd have done it anyway with a different reasoning.

Agree with that as well, people are not visiting their vulnerable relatives that they care about because they know how contagious the virus is and how deadly it is, not particularly because Boris told them to, there is no magic wand and once lockdown is lifted they will have to continue to distance to protect them unfortunately, no matter what other people are doing we will have to risk assess our own lives unless a cure is found

The co-prime minister will be giving a press conference later, which is in itself a ridiculous thing for an advisor to do, but it shows how much power he wields.

Let’s see if he answers the questions and doesn’t keep repeating himself and going off at tangents....
The people that are going to question him need to keep asking until he gives them an answer.

"Quick, delete it from the Internet!"

It'll just make it worse because people will have screenshots and will now do side-by-side images of them changing it which makes them look ridiculous.

I actually think he might be potentially genuinely dangerous and I'm fascinated to see where the press sticking the boot into the hornet's nest goes with this one. The government, certainly, is desperate for them to drop it.

My prediction is that he's going absolutely nowhere even though it'll tank Boris' approval, and that is frankly bizarre.

Exactly, a situation like this calls for someone who won’t back down when being brushed off

How long until Boris starts thinking he's Trump and refuses to do press? Thankfully, while he does have his groupies, he just doesn't have the cult-like following that Trump has and it won't work.

I expect the forum to show him no mercy, like they did for Kinnocks son when he broke the lockdown or that other county Durham lab MP who went to a constituent birthday party...

The fact they're wheeling him out today after the Boris debacle yesterday shows how desperate he is to keep him in gov. I think they're desperate to ride it out. He'll come out and apologise today and try and play into the familial sympathies of middle England.

I was desperate/afraid/worried....

I understand why it's upset so many of you...

My family...

Cummings knows what's in the Russia report, and has been working with Russians to aid and benefit brexit/boris, so I'm not surprised Boris is desperate to stay on his good side.
He isn't a tory and has no loyalty, so I reckon he's prepared to show everyone where the bodes are buried if he has to.

I expect you can back this up with the forum defending these people?
