DS statement on Cummings is shameful

[SouthWestmom]

Basically I am sceptical about how terrible this could be to get for all of us - the mild illness stuff has been dropped as not helpful to the general lock us all up thing.

Regardless as a law abiding person I've stuck to the rules.

Which I thought meant you had to self isolate if you had symptoms and no, you couldn't go somewhere easier. If you had kids you all stayed in together, relied on deliveries or the local council support schemes and 111 if it was bad.

So I'm sickened by the knot tying in getting Cummings off the hook.

31st March he goes off
10 April she says this , covering for him should anyone find out?

Re: Harries

Just so transparent. Talk about what he did without calling him a typical tory (because then it's obvious you just don't like him full stop) or a twat. Whatever happened to debate?

Debate? What debate? Apparently he hasn't done anything wrong, even though he clearly has, and he won't resign even though he clearly should. End of debate as far as the gov is concerned.

I don't like him full stop - he has helped to fuck up our politics and shows total disdain for anyone outside his circle. What's to like?

only sisters do childcare, not brothers Yawn

Hey. I think the government have been pretty clear. Certainly not as unclear as accused.

But DC didn't follow this guidance.

Here we go....

Here we go.

Here we go.

A safeguarding clause????

Hahaha hahah

If you’re well enough to drive to Durham from London(5+hrs) then you’re well enough to look after a child. By the time he would get ill, his wife would probably be recoverEd.

Safeguarding : that's ok then!
We all got it wrong then ..

Safeguarding the vulnerable elderly surely entails not dumping potentially infected kids on them.

The PM knew he was staying up and he didn't come out until he was feeling better

They are fudging this.
But here is a fifty quid voucher towards a bike :

Safeguarding... absolute bullshit

The important point is to stay put. Important, unless you're DC.

Which guidance is Shapps quoting now????

BS BS BS

Oh this is comedy gold.

Where does your family consist ?

How many people are now going through the guidance???

I wonder if this is why they were so keen to change the "Stay Home" element of the coronavirus slogan?

Oh if you're worried about getting ill.

So we could all travel whenever we wanted the minute we coughed once then - because we could all be at risk of it being being CV.

his elderly parents

I'm not sure his elderly parents were involved - his sister and niece/s offered to help.

Its the 1950's again only sisters do childcare, not brothers

Easter holidays for independent schools started on the day he is likely to have travelled to Durham - perhaps his sister is a teacher? More likely his sister and niece/s were around at that time than her brother I would think.

Harries not quite playing the game here . Fence sitting

We have always said in the guidance... err which guidance.

The guidance I read said if you have symptoms you MUST stay home.

This is actually so dangerous- People will stop staying in for 7/14 days now, I think.

Also apparently London and Durham are the same place so it's fine.

Hahah this is brilliant - next question!
