How on earth are they allowed to do this?!?! Watching the news, and they're all rubbing shoulders with each other AND DON'T SAY IT'S IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST! THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC IS PARAMOUNT.

Why are they getting away with this?!

Maybe they all think they are Dominic Cummings? Perhaps they are following their instincts?

MummyPop00 · 24/05/2020 19:03

It’s righteous indignation, therefore ok. Even if it ends up in more unnecessary deaths.

JazzyTetra · 24/05/2020 19:03

Instincts like the law doesn't apply to them?

I saw that and thought the same. Also one of the journalists asking a question via videocall at todays briefing was having technical difficulties and was helped by two different men, both leaning across him to touch his screen 🤷‍♀️

StoorieHoose · 24/05/2020 19:04

Like Cummings then?

Notmyrealname855 · 24/05/2020 19:05

Instinct seems to be a totally legal way of operating now so dunno! Cummings has been seen breaking social distancing with his assistant, separately to his breaking it repeatedly in his multiple trips north

JazzyTetra · 24/05/2020 19:05

There's nothing righteous about causing deaths Hmm more devil spawn....

They are following their instinct. It is allowed, you know.

JazzyTetra · 24/05/2020 19:06

Yeah but you still don't add to the problem or you're condoning it...

Woman from CH4 news earlier heading the baying wolves looked a right bellend, unaware of any obvious irony

JazzyTetra · 24/05/2020 19:06

They're making it more of a farse than Cummings!!!

They're all behaving and have behaved disgracefully during this pandemic.

Utterly abhorrent

Yes. Spot on.

JazzyTetra · 24/05/2020 19:07

So if someone assassinated an idiot because it was an instinct that would be lawful?

OP posts:
EstherEliza · 24/05/2020 19:08

I saw that. Bizarre that they were literally rubbing shoulders with eachother and breaking the rules in their haste to question someone about breaking the rules.

If you are Boris and the assassin was Dominic Cummings, then yes.

HatRack · 24/05/2020 19:15

Tory bots, what's your opinion on them?

JazzyTetra · 24/05/2020 19:20

What's a tory bot?

DioneTheDiabolist · 24/05/2020 19:48

I'm sure the press are acting, rightly on their instincts and that their actions are sensible and defensible.GrinGrinGrin

Port1aCastis · 24/05/2020 19:52

Good for Dodgy Dom then good for the press and all the rest of us, follow your instincts leggjt up to Durham s'ok Dom said so Grin

whatnametopick · 24/05/2020 20:41

I think it's "where possible" now isn't it?. Cummings, Johnston et al obviously didn't practice social distancing as they all caught covid-19 off each other.

Devil spawn ?
