Please ask if his wife can drive.

FuckThisWind · 25/05/2020 17:11

Yes I was just thinking that Stealth. Certain words.

ListenLinda · 25/05/2020 17:11

This is painful to watch.

The centrepiece of the Cummings testimony underlines the problem. Mr Cummings’ child ended up in a Durham hospital. DC said that he was concerned he would end up there too. This is what the authorities wanted to avoid and why people were urged to stay in their primary residence.

So taking his son on a drive to see if his eyesight was OK was keeping him safe. How about leaving him at home with his mum, you'd only be risking other people then.

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 17:11

I'm not a plant but I feel sorry for him that the whole system is so corrupt he's just been chucked out to try to salvage it

Should have had a better boss to whom he wasn't indispensable

No way do I believe he just couldn't get hold of a test. Not even privately.

How could he be cleared by doctors to go back to work without having had a test?

HipTightOnions · 25/05/2020 17:12

Why did he take his child on a risky test drive?

ASK HIM.

Cailleach1 · 25/05/2020 17:12

No, he wasn't looking for loopholes. He is looking for them after the event now. He needed to go a half hours drive away to see if he could drive. What if he could only drive for a half hour and would collapse if he drove for 40 minutes. It is such a crock, isn't it?

itsgettingweird · 25/05/2020 17:12

Actually the only holes that are filled is

He drove that evening and didn't show symptoms the next morning.

He didn't stop.

He did go to Barnard castle.

The rest is ridiculous.

The media put my life at risk through false reporting and I had to flee to Durham.
I had to test that I could drive.
So I went somewhere and got out. Oh yes, I remember now I conveniently felt a bit sick, just as we got there, so we stopped.

GrimmsFairytales · 25/05/2020 17:12

I didn't think about that. Also it was my wifes birthday, so I wanted a day out.

janet1267 · 25/05/2020 17:12

I'm not a paid plant. I've been very vocal in my criticism of him over the last few days.

Why have they tried to hide the fact that they went to Durham at all if he thought it was ok? Why didn't Mary Wakefield mention it in her Spectator article?

vera99 · 25/05/2020 17:12

TOTAL FUCKING SHAMELESS LIAR

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 17:12

Because he couldn't leave the child alone. That makes sense

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 17:13

Yes! The articles have come up!!

Cailleach1 · 25/05/2020 17:13

he had such a burden to bear as he is the person running the country. Never had to court a vote, though.

EmMac7 · 25/05/2020 17:13

Why didn’t his wife drive??

1forsorrow · 25/05/2020 17:13

tootyfruitypickle, yes she is good. Didn't catch who she is.

vera99 · 25/05/2020 17:13

Looks like he and Boris built a giant boring machine yesterday.

HipTightOnions · 25/05/2020 17:13

Ok, why did he take his wife and child on his risky test drive?

JackiFazaki · 25/05/2020 17:13

Who is this woman journo asking about Spectator article?

itsgettingweird · 25/05/2020 17:13

I drove down the road to see if my vision was weird.

That's fucking idiotic.

Everything is his wife's fault and her idea.

NewAccountForCorona · 25/05/2020 17:13

Can his wife not drive, that he had to do a "test drive"

BernardBlackMissesLangCleg · 25/05/2020 17:13

Gosh, wish the paid plants on this thread were less fucking obvious
