His approval ratings are plummeting and the majority of the country thinks Cummings did break the restrictions and acted illegally.

His own party wants cummings gone, the press right and left are circling but he lies on primetime tv.

Interesting I was reading this morning exactly as someone above said. This thing seems to be disappearing and it's surprising everyone.

Also growing theories that this was the second wave with the first being Nov /December. I certainly know alot of of people in December (including myself) who were fucked

Johnson is just repeating shite. He's fucked.
The C4 guy just rinsed him. He won't answer the BBCs fellas question.
The lock down is now over because he said Cummings acted on instinct which is a green light for the rest of the country to do the same.

Got a few people among my Facebook friends who are huge Johnson supporters going back to the Brexit campaign. This has been the final straw for them. Obviously that's not a representative sample but interesting that they are now deserting him and questioning how they voted in the election.

Could clearly see the last guy wasn’t finished. They silenced him before he was done and cut him off

Lets hope this is correct as we don't really seem to have an exit strategy at the moment past just letting people go back to work and crossing our fingers.

Tory MPs are saying their constituents are going mad.
Like I say, normally I'd be delighted but this will probably cost lives.

Every time Johnson is on live TV it hammers home why they do their best to keep him off live TV! No wonder he refused to be interviewed by Andrew Neil.

Twitter now comparing all the fire Cummings is taking to the social media abuse of Caroline Flack that may have led to her death.

Hmm.

2500 infections coming down gradually. Much less deaths too which is good

here’s hoping it doesn’t get higher with everyone using the Cummings excuse to do pretty much what they want if they’ve got a good enough reason

Keep saying Boris is a spineless coward. This is just another example of his cowardice and lack of integrity.

And how dare they both suggest those parents that have done as per the lockdown and taken care of their children while they were poorly don’t care about their children. What an unbelievable wanker

Some knobhead text Radio 2 the other week:

“Can I go to my holiday home, it’s a static caravan on a holiday site, but it’s closed.”

Er, no.
1. You must stay at your primary home.
2. You just said yourself, IT’S FUCKING CLOSED!

Do you think they've signed a suicide pact, try and tough it out but both resign if the public outcry doesn't subside.

Johnson - you're going to have to go Dom.

Dom - if I do I will:
A) Let everyone know what is in the Russia report
B) Agree to appear before the commons select committee fake news enquiry
C) Both A and B

Boris - you can stay Dom

Him repeating Cummings was trying to stop the spread of the disease. How does travelling almost the entire distance of the country (and with a small child will almost have certainly included stops on the way) with the possibility/intention to pass a child into the care of someone else stopping the spread of the virus?

Must remember next time I get a dodgy e-mail to send it to a close relative who's less likely to spot it just in case my computer gets infected to the point I can't use it in order to stop it spreading.

That was a travesty of a statement. Basically calling people liars and that some people can do whatever they like based on instincts while others get fined for doing stuff far less risky. As of now all police will hear is "I was following my instincts" and "I'm doing what's best for my family".

To me it shows Johnson is scared of Cummings because he knows too much.

I was amazed no-one brought this up. Would have also put them in the care of less vulnerable age groups too.

The whole lockdown is now entirely unenforceable. How can it be anything else off the back of all this? It's a massive slap in the face to anyone who's followed the government's legislation.
