A very carefully revised one eh?

If it was at the station, he would have gone No Comment.

So the obvious thing to do was bundle her into a car for a 4 hour journey with a 4 year old?!

PM says 'people should make up own minds' on Dominic Cummings – as it happened

Boris Johnson’s most senior adviser says he has not considered resigning and does not regret his actions

www.theguardian.com

Cummings said none of his usual childcare options were available, and his wife became suddenly ill - she vomited and felt like she might pass out.

Cummings ran home to be with her - he said she might have had Covid, but did not have a fever or cough.

He also felt that it was highly likely he had contracted the disease having been in close contact with the prime minister and others who developed symptoms.

So is he just expanding on the bullshit that came from Boris yesterday?

 

[efcste97]

What a absolute tit

"I was ill to the point I worried we wouldn't be able to look after our child but I could drive 300 miles without stopping."

 

[davek]

Hiding behind his wife and kid.

Utter 'kin coward.

 

[Blues Harp]

The PM was ill himself.......WUT??

 

[Milkman]

Nothing like a nice letter written by a team of solicitors.

 

[Blue Juice]

What relevance does his kid going to hospital have for the initial trip?

 

[Disgruntledgoat]

"I did not discuss this with the PM."

Liar.

Inconceivable that Johnson didn't know Cummings - his right hand man - had driven the length of the country at the time of a national crisis.

Liar.

Imagine Boris coming to work the next day... "Where's Dom? Oh well, sure he'll turn up"

 

[davek]

The hospital was roughy 5 miles away...possibly 2 miles.

Lol.

 

[tsubaki]

Nothing like a nice letter written by a team of solicitors.

a really bad team of solicitors

he has told us he breached these conditions more than we knew he did - the hospital, going to Barnards Castle etc

 

[Harryflashman]

Ha ha he’s a belter

 

[Nymzee]

Kids are a belting excuse to get out of things to be fair.

Loads of people in my office have Monday's off because "their kid is ill".
