Let it go,this story is dead buried and consigned to history.

We aren't in China yet. I'm sure for other subjects you weren't interested in you'd simply be invited to peruse other threads that may be of more interest you.

However this one has you hooked to defend Dom at all costs.

You hope of course.;)

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

I'm not defending anyone. i'm just pointing out the discussion has run it's course,but if you feel the need to drag it out for a few more years feel free to waste your time as you see fit.

Defending someone/censoring criticism I care not for the distinction. It's an easy subject to avoid should it bore you that much. :)

Seph, politics is political. Any law drafted by politicians around the word "reasonable" by its nature leaves interpretation open to the masses. That's literally how judgements would be made around any law that has the word in it. How would your bog standard average person interpret events.

The fact a majority don't consider his activity reasonable, including the police, demonstrates that his behaviour has been unreasonable. His lack of contrition is fuel to the fire.

Ah Civil Servants. There to do the Government's bidding.

Hopefully we remember that when it comes to blaming the politicians or the scientists when we have the inevitable Coronavirus inquiry as to how we have the most deaths per capita in the world despite substantial warning.

it’s not just a political matter on Cummings but it is also a scientific and medical matter too.

The irony being they have now politicised themselves.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

Whitty and Valance have either been gagged or have told No 10 that they will not publicly back the Prime Minister's defence of Cummings.

Because no one wants to hear them, we’re all bored of it

Nope, it is now purely political.

And The legal angle is now closed. It’s a dead donkey

It’s great to see the media silently freaking out that they have lost the agenda.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

If you are bored leaping to his defence at every turn then you aren't obliged to.

Of course it is now political - he has a credibility crisis that is haemorrhaging onto the Government now. Leave voters, remainers, Labour voters, Lib Dem voters.

The only group that doesn't think he should resign is Conservative voters, and even 46% of those think he should.

TBH I'm not a drinker.


Yes I'l have it for birthdays etc, I'll say on Friday I'll have a drink tonight, then on Monday realise I've not had one.

But tonight is our family Skype Quiz night, I will have a drink with that.

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
 

No it is not, far from it!

Civil servants is a neutral institution, therefore it has no right to be politically dragged in to stupid rows about "minor" issues which is exactly what this is has been since the non-story broke last Friday. :rolleyes:
