This latest stunt by Cummings engineering a fuss over his flights of fancy to free Boris from having to take responsibility for the deaths coming from ending the lockdown is a master stroke.
The Tory paymasters must be delighted end of lockdown no backlash and Cummings gets off Scot free.
Everyone back to work
Nothing to see here move along
Well Cummings has certainly undermined the entire government message of the last 10 weeks. That is probably ok, because people are taking no notice of it anyway. There is a definite sense of the Coronavirus situation being over. I saw a group of 8 men, all in their 50s & wearing appalling body hugging lycra, out cycling together this morning. It really was an ungodly sight.

The problem comes if we need a lockdown 2, say if Coronavirus peaks again in the winter. What then? What integrity, credibility or authority do the government have left to ask people to stay at home?

He dismissed the second trip and the visit to the castle on 12/04 as completely false. I hope some CCTV footage and ANPR data emerges. Johnson has staked the house on Cummings’s word.
Let us see the logs from his phone. Whether base station data or actually the phone itself.

A blooming great gap at the appropriate times would be a smoking gun, of course.

If there is hard evidence, surely Johnson has to go?

Adding: A sign of dreadful judgement was that he was going to let Jenrick do the briefing. Regardless opinion of Jenrick, the circumstances dictated that the PM absolutely had to take it.

I don't think he visited a castle, he was allegedly seen visiting the town of Barnard Castle.
thats right...

I spotted Dominic Cummings on a beach in Galway. He was riding Shergar and chatting to Lord Lucan
Going to report it immediately and ring Sky News & Channel 4.
What a good citizen I am.
Twitterati pour in with your adoration.

The liberal elite and twitterati are going to explode with uncontrollable fury. Dominic Cummings and the PM won’t surrender to the mob. And that is precisely why the bullying liberals despise them.
It's more tory grassroots who want Cummings to go.

Ruthless chopping off journalists mid question. That inadvertent cut back to Robert Peston was a classic. His face said it all :)
Johnson won't hold out very long.
I reckon Cummings will go before next Marr's show.

You are fun aren't you? what a comedian and using big words too.
"liberal Elite" who are they? and by the way Boris and Cummings were elected by the mob, and just who are these "bullying liberals"?
Stick to wearing a bowler hat and silly apron tommie

Well worth visiting too, but sadly it is now polluted with COV2 and will be very difficult to deep clean.

Boris Johnson says he does not believe the actions of Dominic Cummings will undermine England’s lockdown https://lbcnews.co.uk/uk-news/government-coronavirus-press-brief-sunday-24-may…


Replying to @LBCNews and @LBC

But surely that was what they were intended to do? the idea was to make a big fuss, fire the public up to kick the lockdown into touch and Boris won't get blamed for the dead, the public will!

REMINDER: Cummings got ZERO childcare.

I assume that is the British interpretation of riding and not the Dublin one?.The latter certainly merits reporting. Now if you were on a Galway beach you have certainly exceeded the PSNI let alone Gardai limits ..Shame on you!!!.
