He's creepy. He was at a Labour party conference years ago as an independent observer, now he's a Conservative advisor.

What's his agenda. Keep him away from power circles for sure. He looks like trouble.

"Broke lockdown rules. Travelling when he had the virus.

Just saw that on the news. Apparently, "Mr Cummings did not break government guidance because he and his wife stayed in a separate building."

It also seems that "Labour said No. 10 needed to provide a "very swift explanation" for Mr Cummings' actions."

Well, that's easy. He's a cunt.

I think it is one of two things.

1. The media have got him in their sights for some reason.

2. Like you say, he is a cunt.

(I don't like that word but I really don't like the individual that much either, he does sound like a nasty piece of work.

Travelled 269 miles whilst symptomatic to stay with his parents. Coudln't make this shit up.

Surely the Tories will be swift in their condemnation as they were with Neil Ferguson?

Mr Hancock said that it was “just not possible” for him to continue his role within Sage, saying he made the right decision to resign.

Cummings won't resign though.

Everyone else in a position of authority admitted that they were fully in the wrong and resigned. He's in contempt of parliament and his substantial travel from London to Durham, quickly after lockdown started shows his contempt for the public and public servants who were put in jeopardy by his behaviour.

Police action would be too little. I'm not very confident in him being eager to do the right thing and to apologise and resign.

Im uneasy about him on the one hand he is abit of a creep and isn't liked in Westminster on the other he's a winner, but yes I will defend him here......

He had a kid that he and his partner couldn't care for whilst suffering symptoms, so his parents looked after them whilst he and his partner isolated in a different part of the house.

The police investigated this at the time and no action was taken so obviously didn't breech the conditions, this was nearly 2 months ago - why has this come out now? The law was very clear there about kids and what they should do in key workers

Difference between this and prof Ferguson or the Scottish CMO is one was looking after the welfare of a kid (after all the welfare of children are paramount) and another was to get a carnel itch scratched multiple times and another was to visit a 2nd home multiple times.

There is no excuse to drive 5 hours while ill. If you are well enough to drive then you can mind your kid.

According to his Mrs in her magazine he could barely lift his head from the bed; so how did he drive them 5 hours away?

You can’t drive 5 hours without stopping with a 3/4 year old so how many other people were out in danger by his stops? His parents are in their 70s so he shouldn’t have been there for childcare even well, let alone with symptoms when he’d been in direct contact with people who already had tested positive

Also why have the Guardian and the Mirror been unable to have confirmation of this story for 6 weeks? Yet when it came out tonight Laura Kuenessberg from the BBC managed to get a quote from a “senior source” which she used to rebuff the other journalist on twitter like she was Cummings’ employee.

Like Rober Jenrick this will be spun and spun and spun until it doesn’t stick

In the meantime people pissed off with the different rules for them and us will think “fuck it” and head off out over the bank holiday letting Cummings’ herd immunity and get back to normal plans come to fruition

I think you'll find that many backbench Conservative MPs will be very vocal in their condemnation.

Should the noise get louder, then he should rightly go.

Cummings is dangerous and not a fan of democracy and unfortunately for the tories his agenda of removing the old guard has left them with a bunch of second rate ministers who have neither the intelligence or experience to do anything about him. With luck he will have a rasputin moment and fall on a sword but somehow I dont think this is it.

This was not started as a political thread. I would have put it in politics if it was.

But Cummings is a public figure and should go.

He not only drove 250+ mikes "with symtoms" but after that drove back to London to work when rules at the time said "work from home if you can"...he can work from anywhere and he is certainly NOT a key worker.

Rules broken at least twice...he HAS TO GO.

This will be the real issue if he isn't sacked - right now.

How are police officers meant to persuade people to do the right thing, or even fine anyone for persisting in doing the wrong thing, if Cummings gets away with this?

Excuse me, officer. Cummings didn't get a fine, just a talking to; so, now you've given me mine, can you just go away and leave me alone? That's what you did with him. Or are we not all equal under the law?

I think he is a keyworker as he was advising the governments response to the pandemic and that was clearly written into the first Bill.

But I agree if he has been a naughty boy then he should be treated as so.

But then didn't the housing minister do the same and is still in role?

We should also ban Madonna from singing too (I mean please do anyways) For leaving the UK to go a B'day Party after having tested positive. I wonder how man people on that flight and at the party caught it from her?

It's very simple, he was part of, and indeed at the top of, a government telling people what the could and could not do. He himself broke those restrictions, he cannot claim ignorance. So either he willingly broke the law, or he felt he was above the law. Either way, he has to go, if he doesn't it illustrates in the cold light of day the absolute hypocrisy and incompetence of this government

Let’s get a few things strait here

He had corona virus...

We was all told if you had symptoms that we should self isolate

We also got told we should visit old people coz their in a higher risk..the death rate over 60 is high

Yet Mr Cummings can drive 250 miles with the virus with his family to see his mum and dad...

I couldn’t give a Sh-t who you are it’s Morally Wrong...

How many people couldn’t go see loved ones for the fear they could catch it and die...and if he broke down on the way who ever came to Rescue them was putting their life and loved ones at Risk

So in my opinion it’s morally wrong...

While you are staying at home, make sure you do the following things

Stay at home

You and all household members should remain at home. Do not go to work, school, or public areas, and do not use public transport or taxis.

If possible, you should not go out even to buy food or other essentials, and any exercise should be taken within your home. The 14-day period starts from the day the first person in your house became ill.

If you require help with buying groceries, other shopping or picking up medication, or walking a dog, you will need to ask friends or relatives. Alternatively, you can order medication by phone or online. You can also order your shopping online. Make sure you tell delivery drivers to leave items outside for collection if you order online. The delivery driver should not come into your home.

If you are an employee and unable to work due to coronavirus (COVID-19), please refer to this guidance from the Department for Work and Pensions to find out about the support that is available to you.

If you are living with children

Keep following this advice to the best of your ability, however, we are aware that not all these measures will be possible.

What we have seen so far is that children with coronavirus (COVID-19) appear to be less severely affected. It is nevertheless important to do your best to follow this guidance.

Also, are we now a country is snitches? The member of public that spotted him, I wonder if they rang the police or the papers first?

I think the defence of what he has done is worse than the act itself

Doing the right think would be admitting to thinking the rules didn't apply to him and see if they will let him keep his job, instead a statement has gone out from the Government that he wasn't doing anything wrong

I am guessing now if anyone gets the symptoms or someone in your family does we can drive to another persons house to stay there and won't be penalised for it

Stay at home

You and all household members should remain at home. Do not go to work, school, or public areas, and do not use public transport or taxis.

If you are living with children

Keep following this advice to the best of your ability, however, we are aware that not all these measures will be possible.

I posted the guidelines above if you care to read. They say to isolate at home. There has been no suggestion that either Mr Cummings or his with actually had the virus let alone were incapacitated enough to require assistance. And if they were in such an unfortunate state were there any other options available rather than driving 250 miles and leaving thier child who was at very high risk of carrying the virus with other family members and exposing them?

There are other options rather than driving 250 miles as stated in the guidance. Also, if both parents are symptomatic, leaving a child with potential high levels of exposure with uninfected people isn't particularly smart, now is it?

He didn't

However thinking about this, he wouldn't have been able to go out either as he would be isolating for 14 days as the statement said he didn't have the virus

In which case maybe the friend who gives him a lift to work who lives two doors away from him could have done? If not another friend one of them may have? Or a charity that are delivering food to people who can't get out? Or the Fire Brigade who are delivering essentials when people can't get out?

I am guessing he should have done what we all would be expected to do? which is stay home

So stay at home and potentially both parents get symptoms so severe that the needs of the child aren't being met or give the child to his parents and both he and his wife self isolate at another part of the property

I answered what most parents do on your other post I quoted.

Lets be honest here, there is no excuse to what he did and admitting it would have made him not look so much of an arse

For me, if our grown up children had gotten the virus and our grandchildren needed looking after I would be breaking the rules and looking after them, but I would accept it wasn't what I should be doing and accept any slap on the wrist that came my way

One of our children did get it who promised they would call if they thought it was getting any worse, happily it didn't, but we didn't break any rules " just in case " it went worse

Yes. How do you think thousands of families dealt with it when one of them became ill?

Becoming ill with flu and this is a different kettle of fish and negligence to the child is against section 1 of the child act

Was either parent unable to look after the child when they set off? How did they know that they would become too ill to look after their child? Was it Cummings mother’s birthday?

So potentially it could lead to child neglect and potentially lead to infection of others (grandparents )

There has been no suggestion that the child was in any danger at the time they travelled. There were other options available for support at thier home, neighbours, friends, I'm pretty sure he has a P.A.. If they had been both seriously ill and unable to look after the child then that would be a different scanario, and steps could have been taken once that situation seemed likely. But that wasn't the case, and you seem quite determined to ignore these facts, and facts they are

Any parent would error on the side of caution when it comes to their child I would of thought and even if the potential was small to be unable to give a 4 year old the needs that it requires then it doesn't matter if the potential is miniscule. Im sure any parent would think the same with this virus

Spectator magazine... Wakefield said that Cummings rushed home to look after her when she began showing symptoms. A day later he began feeling “weird” and then couldn’t get out of bed. “Day in, day out for 10 days he lay doggo with a high fever and spasms,” she said.

Wakefield’s article does not say where they were during quarantine, but it adds: “After the uncertainty of the bug itself, we emerged from quarantine into almost comical uncertainty of London lockdown.”

It wasn't within guidelines, the guidelines have always been the same even since before the lock down. If you have symptoms stay at home, if someone you live with has symptoms, stay at home longer

It is is hypocritical to say one person should stick to the rules then say another person can bend them
