Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
More likely the Mods want to get a bit of shut-eye rather than policing squabbling members.

Guilty as charged.
However, surely now time to move on from Cummingsgate, it's not hard and fast, it's not black and white.
Some support what he did or most likely couldn't care, some oppose (those opposing also being the Media and all opposition parties) therefore skewing the general perception.
either way, they are not getting their kill, he isn't going by the looks of it. So leave it otherwise they are looking increasingly desperate.

Wishful thinking I am afraid.
Polling expert Sir John Curtice issues damning verdict for Boris on Dominic Cummings row
Quote:
Boris Johnson's Government is at risk of becoming the "object of ridicule" according to polling guru Sir John Curtice. Sir John spoke to talkRADIO's Julia Hartley-Brewer about what the Prime Minister could learn from the recent polls. The expert explained how public opinion had "shifted" on the issue.
"Now we know from the fact that YouGov polled first when the story came out and again yesterday that those efforts have failed entirely.
"If anything, public opinion has shifted against Dominic Cummings and against the way in which he behaved.
"Ministers do have to ask themselves, above all, in the next few weeks and months, we do need the public to be willing to trust us on the issue of what they should be doing."

Re: Dominic Cummings visited parents during lockdown measures
It's bad for them but they've already taken the hit at this point. Might as well keep him if that's what Johnson wants.

Of course, it could be completely and easily closed down if he just published the journey data from 27th March to 20th April from his Landrover Discovery's InControl Journey Tracker (free 3 year subscription with a new car, and his is a 69 reg).
