The bloke was just trying to make provisions for his child, even more of a concern for someone in his position who is in the front seat of power, no matter what some say on here might think of that. I really cannot see what he has done that I wouldn't of done had I been in his position and as a REAL father, unlike I am willing to bet a few on here that question him. People comparing him to Prince Andrew(paedophile) or even Chairman Mao(mass murderer) is just ludicrous, and as usual you have your armchair warriors who have all the answers just attacking everyone who just sees this story as trivial. This just stinks of a bitter Momentum group trying to turn a mole hill into a mountain, just ridiculous. I normally listen to news radio station most days, but in the last 2 months I have it off for nearly 24 hours, and then just try and get all the daily facts in a 10 minute period after I have sifted through the 99% crap out there. Honestly this country is becoming so hateful and judgemental of other people in a really nasty way. I get people hate the Tories, hate Brexit and those that made it happen, but the electorate had their say and they went with Boris, that's life, bit troubling that he was the best on offer, but when you see the venom thrown at them it's a wonder anyone would want to do the job, much easier to spill bile and hate through a computer screen like a little Narcissist who will never be challenged in real life. My money is now on some little group that is going to try and take this to court and just waster even more time Edited May 25, 2020 by crumblingcon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is now on some little group that is going to try and take this to court and just waster even more time My neighbour died alone in hospital without his family this week. They obeyed the rules. Surely you can understand that people who have sacrificed to obey the law for the greater good of the nation are upset with our leaders making pathetic excuses and acting as if rules don’t apply to them? I thought the right was all about Rules and Respecting Authority. I see now that as in US, it’s really about doing whatever you want while forcing other lesser folk to jump to your tune.

You can see the two strands of Leaver opinion dividing on the issue. The older and more provincial UKIPers for whom duty, sacrifice and the flag are paramount vs the alt. Reich globalists who espouse a doctrine of ruthless expediency and Social Darwinism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I looked he was still in his paid employment at Imperial College. He just stood down from a working group. I do feel sorry for the Scottish CMO - she did actually lose her job! And unlike Ferguson she was actually good at her job and producing modelling that was accurate! He predicted Sweden would have more than 50,000 deaths by 1 May if it maintained its approach to lockdown - its now the end of May and barely 4,000!

Timm Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 46 minutes ago, Sledgehead said: Big fan of Cummings, but it is what it is: he's a back-room boy. He ponders, he weighs, he strategizes, he sloganizes. The problem he has is that he delivered Brexit almost single-handely, and that went to his head. Now he thinks he can bluff and extemporize like a political frontman, and that he is most definitely not. He's basically shown he is as flawed and vulnerable as the rest of us, and that has shaken everyones confidence in him. This interview was extremely poorly judged. So was the journey to Durham. Maybe therefore Brexit was. He's undermining every aspect of government with every move he now makes. He's the story and a pretty sorry one. Whether he goes or not is hardly the point. Hmm. So maybe Brexit will damage the UK. The herd immunity approach would have. The late lockdown has. Both together will make it worse, and now his actions make an early second wave more likely. He is the architect in all of this. And now, as you say, He's undermining every aspect of government the UK with every move he now makes. When do we start to wonder if this is deliberate?

Social Justice League Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) The Tories have killed thousands of people during this outbreak through total incompetence. Cummings and his bullsh1t is another side of the story but imo, they should all be shown the door. Cummings, Boris and the Cabinet. A right shower of total halfwits who couldn't run a bath.

Social Justice League Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 The irony is that most in the north who voted for the tories will be on the dole in October.

Just to fill you in, despite the most severe restrictions on public movement for like, well, ever, 37K people have been killed here by a transmissible disease.

MonsieurCopperCrutch Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 5 hours ago, PalmerEldritch said: Funny how it is the same ‘outraged mob’ on here screaming out for his head that were outraged at Brexit and the general election result. The guy drove in his own car directly to another family residence where he could rely on help for his 4 year old kid. At no time was there a risk in spreading the virus. None of that matters though because you’ve decided that you have to burn the witch. The local Labour MP insinuating he could now be responsible for an increase in local cases is the most disgusting twisting of facts I’ve seen for a long time. Politically driven nonsense. The Tory MPs jumping on the hate wagon have all wanted rid of him for political reasons and have seen an opportunity. Shameful behaviour all round IMO. Sick of the whole thing. Didn't realise that you were such a fan of unelected bureaucrats living by separate rules from the plebiscites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
