Spot on. Ministers have been caught out once already as they've tweeted in support of Cummings only to subsequently find out there were more apparent transgressions which they were not briefed on. They're not going to make the same mistake again.
I can see Guardian and Mirror journalists collecting a few press awards and doubtless the rest of the media will be looking for additional angles. The Sunday political shows wil be working overtime on it!

As to the other key individuals to whom you alluded, the Scottish MO did break the rules because she had no reasonable excuse to visit her 2nd home, unlike Cummings who was protecting his child.
What's the matter with you or are yo so blinded by your resentment of Cummings?

I'm an admirer of Cummings but unlike some, I acknowledge he is a flawed genius.
Were the laws that the Conservative Party enacted not sufficiently clear for you as well as Cummings?
Let's not forget, Boris Johnson was sacked by Michael Howard in 2004 after issuing denials to newspaper stories which were undermined by later revelations.
