387 Answers
... would like to find some excuse for this second breach of lockdown - after he was well and back at work - and when (presumably) the 'childcare' emergency was no longer valid reason?

BTW,
Cumming’s wife - who is an editor at the Spectator - wrote an article for the magazine during the pair's isolation, describing their experiences of the virus.
// She said that she "felt breathless, sometimes achy", but that her husband had "collapsed... and couldn't get out of bed."
She wrote: "Day in, day out for 10 days he lay doggo with a high fever and spasms that made the muscles lump and twitch in his legs. He could breathe, but only in a limited, shallow way." //
She failed to mention a 600 mile drive to Durham and back while he was at deaths door.
A pack of liars, the lot of them.

If he was that ill, and she didn't summon outside help with her child - how come they suddenly felt the need to drive, given that he must have been considerably improved to be able to get down the stairs and into the car, never mind drive it for five hours!

teacake - // The handling of the whole situation of this pandemic has be a lie from the start, and will carry on being so, they continue to dig a bigger hole. If this virus takes off again they will get less and less support this time round. //
Absolutely teacake - the government's credibility in terms of 'advice' to the electorate is in shreds - and people will increasingly ignore them.

That's the real sadness of this. I've tried my best to support the Government's approach, or the motivations behind it. Everything gets undermined by a privileged snob undermining his own guidance and rules, and the credibility of the Government is further destroyed by rallying around him. Why? Why are they so scared of saying sorry? It doesn't even need to end in Cummings' sacking or resignation. Just apologise. The defences offered up for him is that he was doing what any loving parent would try and do. Fine. Do what a human does and show contrition, if not for the act itself then show some recognition that appearances and perceptions here are vital.
It's simply disgraceful to stick to a line that the guidance that has kept people away from their dying relatives, that has forced lives and livelihoods to stop, can be ignored, or bent, or broken, with impunity as long as you're important enough to Johnson et al.

The easing off of lockdown is a crucial stage.
Do it too fast, and more people will die.
Do it too slow, and the economy suffers.
Unfortunately, we are not in safe hands. The Government have been guilty of mishandling at every stage of this health crisis. It is almost certain they will call it wrong.
