But wait, leaving the home for a “medical reason” is justified and allowed.
I see this is just some lame point scoring by Remainers. Some of you really piss me off with your bullshit reasonings.
This Cummings non-bombshell story is Pathetic and weak and so are those who think Cummings was irresponsible and broke the rules and should be fired or resign, when he certainly did not. Those of you in this category, you need to stop your butt hurt over Brexit, you lost several times in Democratic processes.

It's not about Brexit, Mick. The people voted for it, and in 2019 voted for a Government to deliver it. Fair is fair. Politicians that wanted to remain had opportunities via the opposition and didn't do it, that's their fault.
Whether anyone would consider the same action as Cummings as reasonable for their own kids isn't relevant. Nowhere, anywhere, did it say in the guidance to remove your kids from the situation, or across the country, if someone in your household has coronavirus. You had to isolate for 14 days with the very significant risk you'd transmit it amongst yourselves.
The urge for him to resign is just the natural way of things - everything needs a resignation. Scotland's CMO, the Professor with the mistress, it's simply untenable to insist the public follow rules that you will not. You can't stand up there, apologise for being an idiot and move on.
Politics would probably be better off, and much less polarised, if you could.
