Cummings is taking questions later today

[pontypridd]

How on earth is that going to go?

Non.... je ne regrette rien....

This is the first time I have seen probing and persistent questions from the media - I think face to face rather than dodgy Skype / zoom makes a difference

The fact that he's still saying 'I hope that now I've explained myself, the public will understand' really shows what a hold he has over Boris - he's not explained anything and the fact that Boris has accepted this as a reasonable explanation shows how spellbound Boris is by him.

Absolutely and utterly bizarre

Is this highly nervous deeply unimpressive ,an really a Svengali political materm ,ind?

@TabbyMumz there's quite a lot more he could say.

"Sorry", for one.

Inside I'm screaming 'RESIGN', this is terrible.

He seems to believe the crap he’s talking. Why can’t the journalists understand that he was right? No reasonable person could think he was wrong 🙄

"I think this has gone on too long. He has answered all the questions and really could not say any more. He needs to be left alone now."

Right on the first.

Wrong on the second. He needs to be hounded out of, at least, the office and preferably off the fucking planet.

The questions could be a LOT more probing.

I think he wants the top job.

I think he thinks he's got the top job in all but name.

Has he really been urging everyone to prepare for Coronaviruses for some time? Why were we so unprepared then?

I don’t think there is anything to be gained by asking more, they have pretty much covered everything.

The castle trip does not add up. Wish the journos would ask about that.
I am worried I can't drive.....so why drive?
I am so unclear about my health....so why are you returning to work?
I am worried about my eye sight.....so let me drive.
I am worried about my eyes sight but I couldn't possibly let my wife drive?
I am worried I can't drive safely.....oh, lets strap my 4 year old into the car rather than keep him home with his nieces?
My child needs a wee.....oh, lets get out all of us and play in some wods.

DC says we shouldn't believe everything we see on TV. No fear DC, we don't.

WILL SOMEONE ASK WHY HIS WIFE COULDN’T DRIVE THEM BACK TO LONDON

Jeez. It’s almost like the journos aren’t keeping up with the live MN thread whilst watching this

Probing questions?

How inept must the government be if they're being advised by this spineless weasel???

Ha the fake news defence!

'don't believe everything you're told' says spin doctor who wants us to believe what he's telling us

You couldn't make it up!

Far far too much air time is being given to this arrogant fool repeating himself.

He thinks he's right, he's not resigning and he's not sorry.

Just say you were wrong and shouldn't have driven to fucking Barnard Castle ffs

Could the police find out if his wife can drive?

Can anyone hear these questions@?

His story is full of holes. Ask him to fill them. Number 1- Can your wife not drive? Number 2 - why were you only worried about threats to your home in London at that time? Number 3 - if you were that ill, why couldn’t you get a test?
