Media journalists are now commenting on the criticisms they are receiving in regard to them "hounding" Dominic Cummings.
Although I believe that much of what Cummings carried out deserves great scrutiny, once the media had confirmed Cummings actions, the attack on what he had carried out should have been put forward by the Labour Leadership and not just left to individual journalist to pressure both Cummings and Johnson for explanations in regard to what really happened.
However, even today four days into this government credibility crisis neither Kier Starmer or any of the new Labour Party leadership are not to be found in any way engaged in the public outrage and condemnation of Cummings behaviour. In fact, Starmer has not played any leading role whatsoever in the public venting of anger at Cummings and through that Boris Johnson.
Many within the Labour Party and broader Labour movement are now voicing criticism of Starmer for his lack of action. Just calling for an inquiry (which they will not get) is simply not satisfactory for a supposedly campaigning movement.
Indeed the above is pathetic when considered in the light of a Labour movement who throughout its history has always had equality and justice for the broad mass of British citizens at its core.
As stated, pathetic....simply pathetic leadership.
