I've got my pitch fork to the ready... lets go 'kill the beast'...
Oh hang on... it's all storm in a tea-cup reported for salacious reasons rather than ACTUALLY being 'news' - cause there is no news apparently....

I find the outcry on the radio, LBC, a bit hypocritical. Stephen Kinnock, a prominent member of the Labour Party, made an 300 mile round trip at the same time to visit his father and wish him Happy Birthday. Don't recall anyone saying he should resign. Seems you missed these: "In this time of national crisis it’s good to know that we’re all in it together – unless, of course, your name is Stephen Kinnock, a Member of Parliament, and arrogant fucker who thinks that the law is beneath him and only for other people. Not only was this idiot breaking the rules on essential travel during a health emergency that is killing people all over the planet, but he was stupid enough to post it on social media and them bleat that he was being ‘targeted’ by the police for having audacity to reply thus to his rather inappropriate tweet : “Hello @skinnock we know celebrating your Dad’s birthday is a lovely thing to do, however this is not essential travel. We all have our part to play in this, we urge you to comply with @govuk restrictions, they are in place to keep us all safe. Thank you.” Pretty mild targeting in my opinion. This arsehole drove 200 miles to visit his father on his birthday. This is not essential travel. It contravenes the government rules. I can’t even drive a mile up the road to visit my grandchildren, yet this fucker thinks none of this applies to him. Predictably, that well know left wing arsewipe, The Guardian, had this to say : “Critics said the police were overzealous in publicly criticising the MP, as others warned they could could lose the respect of the public.” No, no, no!!!! If anything, people like this should be setting an example to the rest of us. He’s an MP for Chrisake! If criticism is due, it should be levied on the police for not slapping a £60 fine on him. I’m sure they would have slapped one on me if I’d behaved like this. I would not wish this disease on anyone – but wouldn’t it be a poetic irony if the Kinnick family now succumbed to it? Mr Kinnock, you are not above the law, but you are my candidate of choice for “Cunt of the Week”. Congratulations…" "ALL Kinnocks are money grabbing, traitorous, hypocritical CUNTS. They should all be horse whipped through the streets and then hanged from a good old BRITISH oak tree. Fucking bastards." "When the Welsh cops informed him that his trip was not essential, he claimed that he was ‘delivering essential items’ to his parents. So a fucking birthday cake is an essential item is it, you slaphead cunt? All across the UK, you have families who are having zero contact in person and are face timing (or whatever) to blow kisses to their elderly loved ones, or sing Happy Birthday to them. They are making massive sacrifices for the good of their loved ones and the country as a whole…….and then you have this selfish, thoughtless knob end. A hypocritical, arrogant Politician? What a surprise." Happier now, Pearly?

It was interesting watching the news briefing.
The public questions were pertinent and sensible ... the press just kept asking the same question about the advisor.
He's been rightly called to account and had to explain his actions ... what is there left to say ... and it was weeks ago anyway.

Looks like he's got a foot on the plank! It's moved on from being a Westminster bubble story. The public smell hypocrisy. The media sharks will be circling below the plank. Is Dom going to wriggle out of it? Will Cap'n Bozzer swing in from the rigging and rescue the Admiral at the last minute.

You lost brexit, you lost the election, your leader lost the plot, then you lost your leader, along with many of your mp's. Your own voters and neighbor's voted conservative, so you lost. Basically, you lost, and you're still losing. Cummings may be a twat, but in this case he is guilty of nothing other than human instinct. You're like a leach jim, latching onto anything that might justify your nasty vindictive behaviour, you're a loser.

If he doesn't go can we get rid of this one instead...
She was at it again yesterday, saying counter-terrorist should be dealt with severely!
I believe the Right Honourable Blacksheep is partly referring to this:

A Mail on Sunday headline...
'Boris tries to save Dominic Cummings' job by declaring 'it's not like he was visiting a lover' as maverick ally is accused of breaking lockdown rules THREE times, including second trip to parents' Durham home where he 'strolled in bluebell wood' with wife'

He should have done what any other couple should in their position did stuck in London did, stay at home. What makes him special? Now you are praising the BBC, some of you have been claiming it's left wing when it suits. Make up your minds. Who has praised the BBC Jim Riley ?

He sets em up then knocks em down all on his own.

'Who cares' says Dom......
Inaccurate quote (or rather a fraction of a sentance taken totally out of context to make a story) I happened to be watching TV and saw the whole of that mob attack by the press ...(Social distancing by paparazzi ....my arse) and those words were used but in a totally different context with a totally different meaning to that implied.

I'm sure some on here are enraged - if Dom had tripped over a twig in the woods he would have had to go to hospital and overloaded Durham's NHS services - or, at least, rudely interrupted the making of one of their TikTok dance videos. This is the reason for staying at home, to 'flatten the curve'. My take is this, that if it's OK to drive from London to Durham in a car (sealed inside a metal box), then it is also OK for boaters to carry on along canals and rivers (sealed inside their metal/plastic boxes). "Transcript of Radio 4 interview by Dominic Cumming's wife Mary Wakefield shows her account of events is a pack of lies": "I remember listening to this interview as I was driving home from work and wondering why Radio 4 was affording so much time to Dominic Cummings' wife. She talks about what a kind man he was and how he came home to look after her before getting sick himself 24 hours later. There is no mention of them driving 250 miles to Durham." /

I was talking to Little sis this am.. She says rules be dammed(well not quite in those words), that if her daughter had contracted Corona(single parent with 3 kiddies) she'd have gone... Know Mr Cummings situation different but sometimes u have to do whats right for you..... If he pays the price of losing his position he'll get back before long..these people always do....

I believe the Right Honourable Blacksheep is partly referring to this: Seems the Home Secretary/or Shadow is the place to put idiots! If I get told I can't take the pee a bit because part of what I posted was an old story then I'll do the same when D Abbott is mentioned when people attack Labour!
