Absolute bollocks - if you have nothing of substance to actually say Mr K, I am not interested in your ridiculous and pathetic assertions.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

There will still be plenty of the time for the latter, this is just a juicy story because someone who helped write the rules is accused of breaking them. Same reasons even less senior advisors like Neil Ferguson became stories even if it that case it was more clear cut.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

Which is good of him to do so but your attacking me on something from events from yesterday. Yesterday it was conjecture. Today he's admitted it, be fair. :rolleyes:

Simples - For exercise, which is allowed.

No rules broken, no laws broken. This should be the end of it.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

I wonder why he didn't say the test drive was to test his stamina rather than eyesight? Seems a bit silly to load the family into the car to do that.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

He didnt say it was for exercise did he? From my understanding they barely moved from the car.

I’m not attacking you at all far from it. If you’ve read previous posts I’ve agreed with you on the trial by media and also that at the time he moved his wife and children there had been amendments to the regulations that allowed this.

Nope, the official guidelines were to leave your home to exercise once a day and not to travel/drive to take exercise, this was at the time he made his journey.

The eyesight excuse is precisely that an excuse. He broke the rules. End of

Yes, especially as the majority of the routes from Durham to Barnard Castle are quite twisty and narrow. Great fun on a motorbike not necessarily so much fun or safe if you need to test your eyesight

Oh be quiet, had this been a special advisor to labour or the Lib Dem’s you would more than likely be egging the press on and be baying for blood

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

He left the house for medical reasons - perfectly valid to me. He is innocent and given the police statement an hour or so ago, they must also think so too, pray tell what you have which you think your view overrides that of the Police?

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

Can you provide the link to the police statement? I genuinely haven’t seen it. Thanks in advance

Health reasons are to visit a health care professional. Did he do this?

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

Not sure driving is seen as a valid means of testing one's eyesight.

It's a pretty mild way to break it for sure.

Unlucky for the government scientist who lost his job.for his affairs during lockdown. He should've just said he was worried his penis had stopped working and he wanted to double check?

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

Come on now this just is getting stone cold crazy.

You cannot compare someone who cannot keep his dick in his pants to someone genuinely ill, if your trying to do so, give up now because it is just utterly ridiculous to even bring the two things in the same argument.

Police deemed no further action was needed

Durham Constabulary has issued a further statement confirming that an officer spoke to Dominic Cummings' father on 1 April.

The force says: "Mr Cummings confirmed that his son, his son's wife and child were present at the property.

"He told the officer that his son and son's wife were displaying symptoms of coronavirus and were self-isolating in part of the property."

The force adds: "We can further confirm that our officer gave no specific advice on coronavirus to any members of the family and that Durham Constabulary deemed that no further action was required in that regard."

But the officer did "provide the family with advice on security issues".
