If he had at least apologised and shown some remorse it would probably have dribbled away.
As it is, I don't feel so inclined to follow exactly the guidleines now and will make my own "judgement call" on things. If he hasn't done anything wrong, neither can I or anyone else.

As have many for months now. It only puts pressure on others and for what purpose? How does that help reduce infection? Two wrongs don't make a right, particularly where the health of others is involved.

No they don't, but then I'm not a high profile advisor to the leader of the country and Government, nor wealthy enough to own 2 homes at diffenet ends of the country.

Dominic Cummings is getting an easier ride here than a Patrick Read. And Read moving a little sand in a bunker has no chance of harming anyone else.

Reed isn’t a tory.

We all have a head between our shoulders though and can make decisions based on what we think to be right or wrong.

So, if some far eastern president takes bribes it's ok for the rest of us?
I wasn't aware that Cummings owns the property in Durham.

Apparently it’s his name on the deeds on the property and not his fathers, not sure if left out on purpose as travel to 2nd home was not allowed.

If that’s true that’s exactly the same as the Scottish CMO who resigned and apologised.

If it is true, I am surprised the the police hadn't spotted it when they now say that journey was not an offence.

They aren't having direct influence on my Government or the guidance and rules coming from said Governemnt.

But you are prepared to break rules simply because others have regardless of the moral or legal rights or wrongs?They aren't having direct influence on my Government or the guidance and rules coming from said Governemnt.

No it's not! Calderwood had absolutely no reason/excuse to go to her 2nd home. Cummings (supposedly) did!

Not checked but easy enough to find out, just spend £3.00 at the land registry for a set of official copies. Registered Deeds are public record.

I would add that there are a number of reasons why someone may own a property that the parents live in and it not be a second home. My brother owns the house that my mum lives in.
