Dominic Cummings has left No.10.....

The certain woman who travelled by train may not have been so politically important, but my word she potentially created far more risk than all the others put together especially DC, who actually posed absolutely no risk to any other person!
grannyscott you must understand that certain. posters politically know everything! Whilst anyone who might have a different opinion knows nothing and is viewed as having very low intelligence and is NON PC In every respect imaginable!

Ohhhhh grannyscott. Just had a quick look at your posting history - first example was a demonising of benefit claimants and users of food banks - all of whom you’ve no doubt met.

Great detective work ?

Now I’ll be accused of being sharp and nasty and somebody will send me a hug. Yuk.

Why do we feel we can demonise someone we have never known or worked with. Shameful!

Erm, Hitler, Peter Sutcliffe, Fred West, Rolf Harris, Jimmy Savile ... to name but a few of the people I have judged but never met or worked with..,

I can’t play the violin but know when It’s being played badly. I haven’t worked with Cummings but feel entitled to comment on his departure.

I’m extremely comfortable demonising a huge raft of people through history that I’m never met or worked with.

I just hope that some sense will return to Number 10 and that some grown-ups will make a sensible Brexit deal, particularly as Biden has won the presidency. To have allowed this chaos to develop at this critical time is an appalling example of incompetence on the part of the PM.

I didn't spot this, but it was pointed out to me. Cummings, supposedly sacked- left with his security tag still around the neck. Staged, and badly at that ;)

Mention Cummings and his error of judgement is resurected, but he travelled by car, unlike a certain woman who travelled by train after suffering from symptons and then returned home by train after being tested as positive.

And this is relevant how? I’m actually able like most other posters to disapprove of more than one persons rule breaking at once. Clever eh? I also know that the DC fiasco ( error of judgement Bernard Castke ??) was somewhat more complicated than your airbrushing admits and that his position is not directly comparable to that of an opposition MP.

Oh yes, Cambia - Carrie had the common sense to get hooked up with an opportunistic chancer.

It's gone really well hasn't it.

No he (kinnock) isn't important, but he comes from a high profile political family and is married to a senior politician, so really should know better!!

Even dear old J.C and Barry Gardner ( was that his surname? I forget!) Equally obscene!

Did Steven Kinnock play an important part (or even any part whatsoever) in formulating the rules that we were all supposed to be following?

If not, there's no comparison!

(Not that that excuses him.)

DC, wasn't the only prominent person to break lockdown rules!! Although reading these posts would lead anyone to believe he was! Stephen Kinnock got there first, but no one mentions him!! Ian Blackford was another!! All obscene, not just one!

Whitewavemark and Luckygirl I do find this depressing - it is always that which is the best option as far as we can see, but inconvenient or difficult, that goes straight out of the window at the first opportunity. In this instance, I do so agree, it's Trump and Cummings who are being made the excuse to do as you please. Perversity rules.

My guess is that the unelected fiancé will be pulling the strings now.

I wonder what we are being distracted from.
He shouldn't have been allowed to leave by the front door (and the fact that there were so many journalists there points to his having tipped them off in advance). Plus, his office is not even in No 10, so if there were any doubt that this is a staged performance, the dramatic exit would make me wonder.

Very astute observations, Doodledog!

Rosina - unfortunately people have ignored the rules because of Cummings nonsense - I have heard them say it. The "we're all in this together" attitude went down the pan at that point.

I have learned never to underestimate the perversity of the GBP!

So he's gone - things are looking up! Of course, he had to go very publicly, through the front door with his box of possessions, didn't he?

Look at the vote leave legacy and how much we have shelled out for their pursuit of wealth and the rest of the country can go hang.

'Bit sad to read posters saying that people flout the rules 'because DC did'. Surely you would have to be perverse in the extreme to do something that was generally acknowledged to be wrong and dangerous simply because someone else had, whoever they might be? A Labour minister travelled on a train in full knowledge that she had Covid. I wouldn't - would anyone else be so cavalier with other people's health? As my Mother often quoted ' If so and so put their head in a gas oven, would you?'

My mum used to say the same.

But the sad fact is that they do just that.

Look at the way that the Trumpers have gone about no mask wearing or social distancing because their guru says so.
