In his statement he made himself out to be indispensable to the government, harassed by reporters and very ill.
No sympathy

DrManhattan · 25/05/2020 17:16

I hope she asks him about his wife's birthday.

SharonasCorona · 25/05/2020 17:16

Anna Mikaelova is brilliant

NoMoreReluctantCustodians · 25/05/2020 17:17

She is good indeed sharona

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:18

Women’s role is to serve him 👀🙄

NoMoreReluctantCustodians · 25/05/2020 17:20

Oh FFS. It's the press's fault that he wasnt honest about going to Durham Grin

Heard it all now

FliesandPies · 25/05/2020 17:21

The amount of money this couple must earn. Any amount of lackeys just waiting for the chance to get in with Cummings but no, he would rather take the risk of spreading this deadly disease to his elderly parents.

SharonasCorona · 25/05/2020 17:22

A couple of days later after arriving in Durham he was so ill he couldn’t move but yet he picked up his son from hospital? confused

donkeyoatey · 25/05/2020 17:22

So it was fine for his niece to possibly contract a deadly disease, as she offered. He should have said no!

Larkspurandhollyhocks · 25/05/2020 17:22

Resign yes

dollyknocker · 25/05/2020 17:22

"The people"

Larkspurandhollyhocks · 25/05/2020 17:22

Behaved reasonably???? You twat

FliesandPies · 25/05/2020 17:23

'Now that people have heard what happened..I hope people will say ok we understand'

SO not going to happen

begoniapot · 25/05/2020 17:24

Don't like him, but I would also put my child's well-being first. I wouldn't like my 4yo child put into foster care because there was no one to look after him. DC risk assessed his situation. We are all doing similar re school, shops, quarantine etc.

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:25

He’s going to “exert influence” on Boris and the police over a national crisis. This man is de facto PM.
This an issue for democracy and national security imo.

So it was fine for his niece to possibly contract a deadly disease, as she offered. So it would have been fine for a nanny in London then?

on the screen - Cummings says he did drive to Barnard Castle..but only to check if he was able to drive to London

Even more ridiculous written down like that

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:26

WHO DO YOU ANSWER TO

PotholeParadise · 25/05/2020 17:27

Now that people have heard what happened..I hope people will say ok we understand'

No. I don't.

Why was he driving around with wonky eyesight to see if he would crash? With a passenger, no less?

derxa · 25/05/2020 17:27

People can't conceive of this idea that there was an empty cottage on his parents' farm where they kept isolated. Pure jealousy and spite.

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:27

derxa

If he had a loyal nanny that wouldn’t even be in question. People who work in the care industry deal with illness and infection all the time. The fact that he has no loyal staff speaks volumes about what kind of person he is.

NoMoreReluctantCustodians · 25/05/2020 17:28

Yes derxa but other people with second homes were not allowed to travel to them

Unless they were the.PMs father or the.royal family Hmm

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:29

We will have to stay in our homes while lockdown is being flouted and police are undermined by your behaviour.

donkeyoatey · 25/05/2020 17:29

Derxa- No, not at all. They had the luxury of two parents to tag team if they are ill. He should have stayed in London and done what everyone else would have done- which is to Keep calm and carry on!
