AIBU to think you should all concentrate on your own lives instead of other peoples?

[Fucksakewiseup]

I'm not expecting anyone to take my side but just wanted to put my point across because you seriously are a lot of misinformed busy bodies.

Oh dear Lord, do you all not have enough going on in your own lives without having to spend so much time thinking about DC. Mumsnet in general is a Labour Loving Lick Arse group and no matter what the tories do, you all complain. I've seen threads on here about whether people should be reporting neighbours to police for having parties etc and the majority of you said no. Make your bloody minds up. It's only because of who it is, you are all going mad. You make out like the whole country followed guidelines to a tee and he is the only one who has done anything wrong, even though he hasn't. His job as a loving father comes before everything, and if it wasn't for the fact my kids are teenagers and very self sufficient, we would have had to do something similar as both myself and hubby were very ill with C19 with underlying health conditions. Focus on your own lives and leave other people alone. Everyone thinks they can get involved in other people's lives and it's getting bloody ridiculous.

Hello Dominic

It's always been one rule for them and another for us!

I think you mean it's one rule for us mere mortals and different rules for BoJo and his mates.

This is going to be a right swamp of telling you where you're going wrong.

Hey Dom. I was just thinking we need a "I'm Dominic AMA. Want to start one up?

Yes, very angry, might start meditation

You need something

Hi OP 👋
I voted Labour in the last two elections.
I don’t give a flying fuck about DC and his little trip.
So for that reason YABU to address the whole of Mumsnet in this manor.

I also don’t give a fuck if others want to froth at the mouth about it. So maybe you should take your own advice here and not get so wound up about what others are focusing on and.. y’know... focus on your own life?

No, just because i have a different view than most of you doesn't make me an arsehole.

@FOJN well I do have a persistent tickly cough, so the popcorn might help soothe my throat?

Yeah you have clearly not been here long if you think everyone is labour voters

Try taking your own advice

Get out of my fucking face, Mary. Haven't you got a flock of sheep to lie to or something

It's only because of who it is, you are all going mad

Your insightful thinking is startling

@Fucksakewiseup

And yet here are you concentrating on the lives of other people, namely mumsnet posters or more worryingly the devilishly named Labour Lick Arse Group (LLAG). While I agree that this mums-net enclave of pro labour posters needs stopping, you are only one woman (maybe) and taking this rebel splinter group on alone seems dangerous. Granted I know very little about the LLAG but they sound scary and definitely definitely are a real thing and not simply a construct of your own overworking mind ☺️

I wish you god speed in your mission, remember if things are getting difficult, simply break any rule you want and then claim it was for the best and you acted with integrity while simultaneously trampling on the families who up to now have continued to make great sacrifices for the betterment of the country as a whole.

This post will self destruct in 10 seconds - or approximately what it has taken this government to implode...

Everyone thinks they can get involved in other people's lives and it's getting bloody ridiculous.

See this would hold some water had the very person we have been discussing not been the one telling us exactly what we can and can't do the last so many weeks.

I'm a Brexit, Tory voting, centre-right poster and I think DC has to go. Those at the top have seen all the "science" that is apparently petrifying and means we needs to be locked down, yet many of them are happy to break the guidance.

I'm against lockdown but have followed it, now I feel justified in my views that it's all a load of economic damaging nonsense. That's a little worrying really.

Also, why has everybody who had been fined not been allowed a 6 hour one to one with BJ to clear things up to get them off the hook?

I hope he is fined and fired.

Granted I know very little about the LLAG but they sound scary and definitely definitely are a real thing and not simply a construct of your own overworking mind

You may not know much about the LLAG but we know all about you. We have people everywhere, don’t you know

Okay okay i admit it. It's me, Dominic. Just wanted to be my usual self and piss people off 🤣😂

Completely agree, op. Huge double standards going on.

Anyone else remember when trolls on MN had at least a modicum of wit instead of labouring under the impression they’re totes hilarious?

Ah the good ol’ days.

Totes hilarious? What are you, a 12 year old girl??

It's only because of who it is, you are all going mad

Well that's kind of the point. It IS because of who it is and the fact he was one of the ones telling everyone to stay home. He's in the party telling people they couldn't go to see their dying relatives, that they couldn't attend funerals of their own children. He IS a fucking hypocrite and needs to be held to account.

Totes hilarious? What are you, a 12 year old girl??

Adopting the type of language someone of your brainpower could understand. It’s a fairly common technique when you need to communicate with your type.

Completely agree, op. Huge double standards going on.

I agree. Every official visiting their second home has been fired apart from Dominic Cummings.

Irony thy name is Fucksakewiseup

I wouldn't have said that MN was overwhelming pro Labour. Very anti Tory, yes, but most people I know are so that doesn't tend to stand out to me.

Look, DC is a public figure, he should be under more scrutiny than your average Joe. I'd apply the same to Keir Starmer or John McDonnell. Besides, I don't think it takes an astounding level of insight to say that the vitriol surrounding this entire situation is worse because of who Dominic Cummings is. I'd say most people, even the truest, bluest Tories, would take any excuse to get that man out of office.
