My man? I think you will find that I say he should go as the excuse he gave about the drive for his eyesight was bull. I can understand the drive to his parents property and agree with that, and on that note would defend Blackford if that is all he did, but I also would like to see the same justice given to all who did the same. Cummings has been labelled (rightly so) but it is a bit of pot calling the kettle if you can defend others for doing the same thing.

True, the excuses that Cummins and Goings made were absolute sheite, he should have been sacked. But the assertions that Driveller makes that the law/rules somehow apply more to those who make it than those who live under it, is 4kin nonsense and very convenient, dontchaknow, as 3 labour MP's also broke lockdown rules.


The most important demand of the Rule of Law is that people in positions of authority should exercise their power within a constraining framework of well-established public norms rather than in an arbitrary, ad hoc, or purely discretionary manner on the basis of their own preferences or ideology. It insists that the government should operate within a framework of law in everything it does, and that it should be accountable through law when there is a suggestion of unauthorized action by those in power.

But the Rule of Law is not just about government. It requires also that citizens should respect and comply with legal norms, even when they disagree with them. When their interests conflict with others’ they should accept legal determinations of what their rights and duties are. Also, the law should be the same for everyone, so that no one is above the law, and everyone has access to the law’s protection.

I've lived my life by those rules. *Yeah Righto*

Has Cummings got compromising photos of Disturbed as well?

What do we reckon, dog, cat, goat?

Just read that Durham Plod say Cummings broke lockdown rules. Comparisons are fatuous.

3 days after lockdown started and Cummings drove a day later. So what is the problem?

Spot the difference:

One drove to his home
One drove from his home

Why? Have I not said he should be fired? I have said he should be but I also make the point that all others who have done the same should also resign or be sacked. Which part of that is hard to understand?

Easy to understand, difficult to acknowledge it seems.

It does seem that many things that are written on here are looked at by some whose lights are on but they are not at home

So now we can have an end to this saga as this puts it in the same bracket as the Kinnock story.

PM aide Dominic Cummings' trip to Barnard Castle "might have been a minor breach" of lockdown rules, Durham Police has said.

But the force said no retrospective action would be taken against the PM's chief adviser.
