Apparently no covid laws/guidance were broken. What kind of bubble does it fall under?

@MercyBooth

And to think the affair was known about in the Commons in December

While we were being psychologically abused over wanting to visit in someone elses house for Christmas.

And all the bait and switch its on again off again on again off again over it and told we were being selfish.

Absolute cunts. They all knew. Well i went to my parents on Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Just a 20 min walk away. Luckily i could take advantage of the new support bubble rule which came in that month but DB couldnt He is incredibly angry. Especially as DM is now deteriarating physically.

Good luck with engineering another Christmas lockdown Tory AND Labour cunts. Cos you will need it....

👏👏👏👏👏

I don't think it's Cummings leaking this. I don't think he was particularly set to have Hancock fired. I think his goal is to bring Johnson down and Hancock was merely the most useful tool in his attacks/the weakest link in the cabinet. The public has a high level of tolerance for Johnson's shit behaviour because it's Boris being Boris or whatever. But tolerating someone else's, especially someone who is already disliked, distrusted and with no charisma, does not look good for him.

I've read that it was a Dept of Health whistle-blower, helped by a prominent lockdown sceptic journo. The whistle blower sat on it for 6 weeks.

Do you think that the tabloids had to have it checked out first ? Get the lawyers in early doors to make sure that he couldn't sue them ( and maybe double check it was actually him?)
How would it work , must be a reason that people ' sat on it' for so long I assume.
It's still a security breach of some kind though which is more of a worry.

@RockingMyFiftiesNot

A few weeks ago we had a visit from 2 police officers to question our son as it had been reported that he had been seen in our local supermarket without a mask on.

Blimey, where do you live that the police has enough spare resource to do that?!

That was my first thought when I realised why they were there!
