Also since when do Tories NOT throw aides under the bus? Why this fear of Cummings??

blobbyface · 23/05/2020 16:38

Sorry Stealth - I missed that one!

MagisCapulus · 23/05/2020 16:38

Shapps was all a bit, stop aking the same questions, ask about my road upgrades!! rant there...

StealthPolarBear · 23/05/2020 16:39

Just to be clear when I say they're doing well, I just mean they have a response to each question without doing wjay I'd do and shouting "He's been an idiot and I can't defend him"

Ah they have been listening to the teachers after all, it's all about safeguarding Grin

Sparkesy · 23/05/2020 16:39

Must be no supermarket or food deliveries available in London then??

Music101 · 23/05/2020 16:40

GREAT QUESTION Grin yeah because it’s not about Cummings - Shapps gets a breather.

StealthPolarBear · 23/05/2020 16:40

They could have had food delivered to their London house. They weren't incapable of looking after the child as they say he was only with them.

TerrapinStation · 23/05/2020 16:40

Oh, the current questioner is letting the side down by asking a transport related question, get with the programme and help get rid of Cummings, hope his follow up is a Cummins one

Music101 · 23/05/2020 16:41

Shapps desperate for him to follow up with more transport Grin. Begged him.

rosie1959 · 23/05/2020 16:42

The journalists all asking the same question There must be more important things than Cummings

campion · 23/05/2020 16:42

Sparkesy · 23/05/2020 16:42

Desperately wanting him to ask another question to keep the wolves at bay

MayFayre · 23/05/2020 16:43

I’m no fan of Grant Shapps but I do feel sorry for him today! Others screw up and he takes all the flack.

StealthPolarBear · 23/05/2020 16:43

A school friend of my dd has five children. At one point she and her dh were both ill. They had to cope.

StealthPolarBear · 23/05/2020 16:44

Jenny is being very careful NOT to comment on cummings. Desnt want to be seen as political presumably, and also thinks he is an idiot.
