Another one caught flouting the lockdown rules, travelling from London to Durham when off work with symptoms of the virus. Wouldn’t be surprised if he keeps his job though - after all he is running the show
Makes it worse. It was illegal then. You could just about get away with it now.That was nearly two months ago. Have you got any recent news?
Ah right. So when things happen in the past but only come to light in the present, that's ok then? Interesting perspective.That was nearly two months ago. Have you got any recent news?
From the BBC article
If you read in between the hysterical lines.....
"Mr Cummings did not break government guidance because he and his wife stayed in a separate building.
The story was first reported by the Mirror and Guardian newspapers."
Blah Blah Blah
"The Mirror and the Guardian reported Mr Cummings, the former Vote Leave chief who was the architect of the PM's BREXIT strategy, had been approached by the police."
They made a 250 mile drive whilst both parents suffering from Coronavirus to stay with his parents so they could look after the child that had been in close contact with them during their illness - the advice was Stay Home, Save Lives, Protect The NHS - if you have symptoms then you and your family should self isolate for - was it 7 days back then or 14? - so yes, he did break Government guidelines and endangered his parents - and in the case of Service Station Stops etc. then the people following them through.From the BBC article

Regulation 6 of The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) Regulations 2020 at the time don’t seem to cover the “reasonable excuses” cited for leaving the place where he resides - I think this is what you were trying to recall Gareth.You weren't supposed to travel anywhere so there is one rule he broke without me even trying!
Suppress what story?I have to agree with you here Don. So surprising that The Sun, The Express, The Mail, The Telegraph and so on have chosen to suppress the story?
My Mum and dad haven't been able to see my kids for 8 weeks mate. It's not on whatever way you look at it.Oooh
Guess what you're going to masturbate over ♥
If you don't like our country or our elected representatives, why don't you research somewhere more aligned to your anti English tastes?They made a 250 mile drive whilst both parents suffering from Coronavirus to stay with his parents so they could look after the child that had been in close contact with them during their illness - the advice was Stay Home, Save Lives, Protect The NHS - if you have symptoms then you and your family should self isolate for - was it 7 days back then or 14? - so yes, he did break Government guidelines and endangered his parents - and in the case of Service Station Stops etc. then the people following them through.
According to his journalist wife he was very very ill in bed and she wasn’t too good herself, fortunately their child was able to bring goodies to daddy in his sick bed (was that in London or Durham cause if Durham it begs the question that were Grandma and Grandpa NOT looking after him?) - thank goodness they managed to drive safely from their London home whilst so ill to one of the hardest hit COVID-19 hotspots in the UK.
Still makes no difference if they sack him or not, Cummings will still be working Sock Puppet Johnson which must be a great relief to some.
You think that all the political classes have been playing the same game as us, and following the same constraints for eight weeks as us?My Mum and dad haven't been able to see my kids for 8 weeks mate. It's not on whatever way you look at it.

Cum on!,
Wow. You ain't doing yourself any favours tonight mate. I have no political leanings but I think you should stop now and go to bed.

Why?My Mum and dad haven't been able to see my kids for 8 weeks mate. It's not on whatever way you look at it.
But you prefer a foreign government for us English?I’m not anti English - just anti wankers like you.
I don’t think Cummings IS actually an elected representative and last time I looked the principle behind a democracy was the ability to hold a differing view and the right of free speech. So I apologise for calling you a wanker, you are of course allowed to have an opinion of your very own.But you prefer a foreign government for us English?
But you live in England, yet you reject our democraticly elected governmentI don’t think Cummings IS actually an elected representative and last time I looked the principle behind a democracy was the ability to hold a differing view and the right of free speech.

By the way, the English don’t actually have a Government of its own as it’s The Government of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.
Nor me!Nothing I have so far seen,heard or read about Dominic Cummings makes me think we wouldn`t be better off without him.Let`s hope he gets what his irresponsible behaviour deserves.We would be well rid of him but I have a nasty feeling will allow him to wriggle out of this..
But you live in England, yet you reject our democraticly elected government
Ah, the argument of the idiotic.If you don't like our country or our elected representatives, why don't you research somewhere more aligned to your anti English tastes?
Professor Neil Ferguson was forced to quit as a member of SAGE for breaching the lockdown when he was visited by his girlfriend.
Scotland’s CMO Catherine Calderwood was forced to quit after making two trips to her second home during the lockdown.
Dominic Cummings??????.......watch this space and discover whether the same rules apply to everyone; or whether there’s one rule for Dom and another one for the rest of us.
He has to go. Regardless of when this occurred and regardless of who else has or hasn’t done what.He won't resign and he won't be sacked. Without him Johnson would be rudderless and very exposed, he is almost more important than the PM in this administration.
Cummings is unapologetic having described this story as 'fake news'. I'm not sure how it is 'fake' as the police have confirmed that he was in Durham at the time that the story states. This government won't face scrutiny, they will just avoid giving media interviews until this blows over and boycott any outlet that asks difficult questions as they have been doing for months (R4, C4 news, GMB etc.)
One rule for the little people and another for our leaders. Rank hypocrasy.
However for the government this turd will prove difficult to flush, it will be a floater while Cummings remains in post.
I agree Lala he should just resign his name will be forgotten about by next week.He has to go. Regardless of when this occurred and regardless of who else has or hasn’t done what.
His position is untenable and his excuses or reasons are simply not good enough.
You can’t advise and lord over the nation and then disrespect and flout the very rules and policies you are party to creating and enforcing.
As Gloria once sang ‘ go now go, walk out the door........’
Excellent post, I couldn’t put it better so I won’t try.He won't resign and he won't be sacked. Without him Johnson would be rudderless and very exposed, he is almost more important than the PM in this administration.
