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.

Do you also think all the people in rural areas who have asked people from cities not to come to their second homes to avoid burdening the hospitals are operating out of ‘jealousy and spite’?

You ignored a 2016 report On preparing for a pandemic and employed racist eugenics “forecasters” instead.

Fgs his child wouldn't have gone into foster care. We are talking about a wealthy, well connected and incredibly powerful man not a single mum in a council flat with no family.

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. Poor nanny Sad

Written about pandemics and coronavirus. Does he have a degree in medicine?

FliesandPies · 25/05/2020 17:30

That shut him up Grin

And the Cummings’ did burden the hospital, their son went to hospital by ambulance.

He could have employed a driver, he could have employed a nurse.
He could have got tested.
Why did none of these things happen?

LouHotel · 25/05/2020 17:32

People must have pictures of his outings for him to be doing this.

His wife did not have corona symptoms, she never had a cough or fever. He said this multiple times.

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:33

I’m sorry but this is a complete shambles.

Three words. Salary. Hazard pay.

Were these going to be offered to the niece? I'd expect them to be offered to the nanny!

Somebody fix.the reporters' microphone

thisenglishlife · 25/05/2020 17:34

Why does he keep calling it a disease? It is a virus.

Ulver · 25/05/2020 17:34

It’s like Baldrick on steroids

Because he had been sick and had a temperature Confused

How has no one jumped over that table and knocked his head off

Well I'm a farmer in a rural area and we work out in the fresh air. Isolation is absolutely possible. He's not in a very high risk age group and looks slim. He wasn't burdening local hospitals. And he didn't.

I can conceive of it fine. But by his own account, he did not teleport there.

In fact, he was driving around with "weird" eyesight to see if he was safe to drive. Shock

I didn’t know I could exercise my judgment- I thought we had an instruction from no 10 - stay at home!!!!

FliesandPies · 25/05/2020 17:36

"The rules explicitly say.."

So how come you were the only one who knew about them?

NoMoreReluctantCustodians · 25/05/2020 17:36

You did teach but it doesn't apply to him because dont you know who he isHmm

PotholeParadise · 25/05/2020 17:37

Weren't farmers on MN the other week appealing to urban daytrippers to stop visiting your workplaces, running our filthy hands over farmers gates?

FliesandPies · 25/05/2020 17:38

"Take care..
