Interesting from Ms Crerar. Now- the Mirror is an appalling lowest common denominator rag- but credit to her for her work on this so far, assuming it proves to be well founded. Her latest tweet says : " The PM is also quite clear that Dominic Cummings self-isolated for a full 14 days at his family's Durham home. "That's what Mr Cummings and his family did". "Mr Cummings did isolate for 14 days or more". Hostage to fortune?" That last comment- "hostage to fortune" tends to suggest she has something more ready to roll. | |

Boris is just making excuses for Cummings (n/t) on 18:01 - May 24 by GeoffSentence | I was wondering if we would hear from you on this matter, honestly I am surprised that we haven't heard from you earlier. Given how quick you were to jump on Neil Ferguson for his indiscretion can I just check if you think that Cummings is also "a shameless operator"? |
Cummings has the reasoning that he was doing it for the sake of his family. The other boy was having a booty call with a married woman, which isn't even in the same ball park. | |

As a few have speculated on here, they're playing a long game here. There's more to come and it'll be more damaging still. | |

Cummings was worse. Ferguson had already had the disease and got over it. Cummings wife was ill and he drove up to the elderly parents at the risk of passing it on to them. | |

Apologies, accidental downvote. To people like him, it is a game. No one with any scrap of humanity continues to defend this shower, only the people whose own lives are so pathetic that all they live for is seeing people on ‘the left’ hurting. Even in a global pandemic that’s all they care about. | | | |

There is a careful and deceitful equivocation going on in the narrative here- probably at Cummings' direction. The rules and guidelines which are generally quoted and used by the government when defnding Cummings are the general ones- which Cummings clearly broke. In fact, he supposedly had symptoms, or was with someone who had them- which means stricter rules were applicable than the ones which they are trying to say he acted within... | |

So it's a good thing he's able to "wind up" people that haven't been able to visit or bury their elderly relatives? You're a disgrace. | |

It's clear the pro EU brigade hate Cummings because of his success in politics over the past four years. That is the main reason for this reaction in my opinion. He is said to have stayed well away from his parents but wanted them close by if they were required. If that's the case I don't have a problem. If not then he's out of order. | |

It’s not just the pro EU brigade that are after him, it’s the caring about facts Brigade. It was nothing to do with childcare, he said all that happened was he had food brought to his door, which could have been done in London. | |

I disliked DC for his role in the leave vote. But it is possible to ignore that and judge his actions on their own merits. Same with BJ. Have never liked him, but can still judge his actions based on what he does. As have the tories i know who think both DC and BJ have acted poorly. Are you actually of the view DCs actions were acceptable? | |

You may be able to help me understand this as I’m sure we had discussed the subject not long after the lockdown started. The story now seems to be that Cummings didn’t make a second trip to Durham as reported but instead went to Durham, self isolated for 14 days and drive to Bernard Castle as part of his daily exercise regime. Barnyard Castle is thirty miles from where he was staying. Was there a restriction on the distance you could travel for exercise? | |

You can’t go out of your front door if you’re self isolating because someone in the house has symptoms. Daily exercise is not allowed. | | | |
