Of course, a PM needs advisers. They can be drawn from the civil service and relied upon to give impartial advice.

Like Sir Humphrey you mean

So you broke the rules. Not something to be proud of but understandable. Not sure you sat in a group which advised the government on the rules though?

You may have acted on instinct but that is no defence. I have an instinct that Mr Jones wants to do harm to my family. My instinct says I should kill him. I do so. My DomBo defence is that instinct nullifies the rules. Fair? I think not.

The Labour MPs who have broken the rules.
Stephen Kinnock (shadow cabinet) travelled 150 miles for a birthday.
Tahir Ali attended a funeral with 100 people.
Kevin Jones - Birthday party.
Labour Health Minister twice went out for a picnic with others. Virtual media silence.

and they should all resign along with any Tory MP's or Liberal or any other MP. To me they are all as guilty as each other.

That’s a law and a life sentence crime. How’s the Victory Gin?

Cummings giving a press conference today, regardless of whatever story they try to sell, this is not a good look for the PM.

When you have to wheel out an unelected member of staff on the tax payer payroll to bat for the PM you undermine Johnson's authority. Putting Cummings in the spotlight makes him fair game for continued scrutiny moving forward.

People act like Cummings is some political genius but in reality their handling of this crisis has been poor and I think they have miscalculated public mood with this. Even if Cummings doesn't go in the coming week, this saga will do harm to this government in the long term. It will be very easy for the opposition to paint Johnson as a puppet.

For the record I will be very surprised if this brings down Cummings, I think they will struggle on.

Very nice dear.

Doesn't matter what the crime is, it is the principle of not using instinct as a defence for breaking any rule or law imposed by the Government.

Quite right.

We all know why these rules are in place and we follow them, but there are family circumstances that exist or might arise where you need to visit someone and there is no significantly increased risk to anyone else.
Sometimes, blindly following blanket rules is just not reasonable in certain situations, and where the family is concerned, one has to do what the heart tells you.

That doesn't mean you can murder people or some such hyperbolic twaddle.

Untrue. Individuals have partiality but as a group the civil service doesn't. If there was evidence that it did then the people to change that are our politicians and they haven't. If you disagree with their evaluation then change your politicians.

Stop and look around you.
Watched too much muppet Christmas carol I reckon
But seriously watch the tv news as I'm sure you did yesterday at 5pm. 1000s and 1000s have broken the rules. More chance that they have infected others than Cummins. Wheres this 2nd outing he had anyway.
Havent seen any pictures yet.
