I'm not sure the media can say much about people flouting lockdown. Did anybody see the media circus outside Cummings home, the press were literally climbing over each other to get their shot.

I’m sure Cummings didn’t mind. The rules don’t apply in his vicinity.

See the new instructions have been dispatched from Conservative HQ. Now its nobody should question Cummings actions as one of his kids has autism. Didn't realise he was the only person in the country to have a child who was autistic.

I tell you what, I give you lefties as much shit as I see appropriately possible. This however I think goes further than that.

We've all suffered for two odd months now and needed some leadership and support, especially with my own personal shit going on.

The fact the such senior members of the Tory party can do something like this, and then not even have the cheek to hold their hands up is fucking criminal.

What is the point on staying in lockdown and behaving when some think the law is above them? Yes, I think COVID is a load of shit for someone my age, but I've been respectful to protect people around me who may be more vulnerable.

Their behaviour makes me just want to do what the fuck I want. No defending it. Fucking cunts.

We are close to saying fuck it we’ll go to Greece if the flight is still going regardless of what the government is saying in mid July. We have worked ourselves silly trying to teach from a computer and they can piss off if they want to deny us a week somewhere else with barely any infection.

We’re going to Durham tomorrow for a day out. Apparently there’s a castle nearby that’s just lovely.

There’s quite a big GSK site as well, maybe he was after some vaccine

Right fuck the Cummins issue for one minute.


Im willing to put my neck on the line following all the scientific articles I've been reading recently


Coronas on the wane. Following the exact path of SARS in mutating a lot weaker and dying out. This so called second wave that the twitterati keep banging on about hasnt taken place anywhere. Basing that on a flu virus anyway, totally different animal to a coronavirus.



Can see us almost back to normal come end of June

Has anywhere in the world got such a high level of residual infection with no track and trace in place?

Johnson is just repeating shite. He's fucked.
The C4 guy just rinsed him. He won't answer the BBCs fellas question.
The lock down is now over because he said Cummings acted on instinct which is a green light for the rest of the country to do the same.

I told you so

Could be interesting trying to enforce any fines.

Will be 1 more week of it, with the virus now dying out and other countries having no second spike I think lots will be lifted from June 1st....thankfully the light is getting brighter at the end of the tunnel

still think pubs won’t be till July

Other countries do not have such a large residual infection rate.

Said this for weeks. Got laughed at on here, and by work colleagues, friends etc. Its actually glaringly obvious and you don't need a degree in medicine its common sense.

Its proven to have been in Europe as early as November. We had a flu season resulting in 8 times higher hospital admissions and deaths. 4 times more deaths from pneumonia from November.

The amount of people, (even a smallish sample for example on here )who had symptoms from December onwards but as it wasn't mainstream or named, just cracked on with a really bad cold ( all we would have known it as).

The fact that this fucker was spreading at almost 100,000 a day a few months back, but is now only recording 20 odd new cases a day in a city the size of London, which shows there must be MASSIVE immunity.

Even the vaccine makers from Oxford uni are saying they think this will.disappear before they can even complete the human trials.

This is more than likely the dreaded 'second wave'. Unfortunately it mutated from what everyone was experiencing from November onwards and It ripped through everyone at speed, and unfortunately, for whatever reason, genetic, viral load, whatever, killed people or made them seriously ill.

But it's on its way out, the rest of the world is showing this. Not long now lads, keep smiling

Look, I had a sister who died him pneumonia in January having been ill from December. I spent a significant amount of time in ICU in Cov and then Glenfield (a specialist respiratory hospital in Leicester). There was zero evidence then of covid being here and their beds weren't even fully occupied. The nurses said it had actually been quieter than usual for winter.

Hopefully, you're right and it has or will mutate to a milder form but I think it's an utter nonsense to suggest it was here earlier than the first reported case.

The frightening thing about all of this is how many people genuinely think it’s ok to do whatever they want because someone else did it. It’s like the population all suddenly turned into 5 year olds. If you genuinely believe he was wrong and reckless ( I do ) then grow the fuck up and be better

Is it not just people saying that to make a (perfectly valid) point though? The risk is still there so nobody is actually popping round their nans for a snog because some bald tramp fucked up and got covered for.

Divs aside of course.

Interestingly the anger that people seem to be feeling is in regards to the first case and it doesn't matter if the government try to.ignore any other accusations

Yep possibly. It’s just a pretty lame way of making a point for me. Devalues the initial very valid argument I guess.

 

[David O'Day]

Plus his defence of Cummings that basically said to people you don't love your children enough was madness.

Gavin Williamson is the one giving car crash interviews today.

I like the people don't lie to prime ministers from the man sacked because the last pm thought he lied to her.

Everything Johnson has done so far is to see which way the populist wind is blowing and follow that route.

This time he either read it completely wrong or, more likely, he really does value Cummings' job above everything.

One can only imagine the dirt Cummings has on Boris, the cabinet, Vote Leave, Russia report etc.

The fallout of this is going to be spectacular and I am going to enjoy seeing Johnson's demise.

I like the way they’re refusing to say Cummings didn’t stop on the journey because they now know that if the do the press will probably drop a story proving he did.

It's always good to get reassurance from a man sacked for what amounted to treason.

Johnson probably isn't aware a 260 mile journey with a 4 year old would require stops.
He's usually fucked off on his kids by the time they reach that age.

This is heartbreaking and there will be hundreds, maybe thousands of stories like this.

Johnson can not address the nation and tell us to do our part any more. He has completely fucked what little credibility he had left out of the window with this.

Yup, and this is why this isn't going to blow over. It's not about one man flouting the rules, it's the governments response to it sticking 2 fingers up to all those that have followed the rules and suffered.

There's a lot of Northern tory MPs trying to get the pm to sack Cummings if only to save themselves
