He drove 30 mins to a castle to test whether if he was fit to drive. Having run this test, he returned home. WTF?

Their new statement says it was decided no further action was required relating to coronavirus. How did they manage that when it wasn't mentioned?

You could say Dr Calderwood and / or Prof Ferguson was only a potential £60 fine but they were both forced to resign.

He sounds like me trying to explain why I stayed out until 5am when I said I’d be back at 10pm.

Actually its nothing to do with silly financial penalties, its about showing contempt for thousands of people who were following instructions they were given, even though they had family members that were sick & dying. But that doesn't affect you personally so you won't give a shit about that.

The first thing he's said is he went home as his wife was displaying symptoms and then went back to work.
if you live with others and you are the first in the household to have symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19), then you must stay at home for at least 7 days, but all other household members who remain well must stay at home and not leave the house for 14 days. The 14-day period starts from the day when the first person in the house became ill.

Comical that you’d decide to drive to a local tourist attraction to test your driving rather than doing laps of your family’s 6-mile estate. And absolutely standard that those who feel they might not be safe to drive would have a 4 year old kid in the car.

Bollocks is it a "complicated tricky situation"- well connected millionaire with family & friends in London close to his house- try swapping places with one of the families with kids who got sick who also had family members in an ICU and tried to observe "the rules"- thats a tricky situation so fuck off with the violins

he didn't want to give it to his parents but he was prepared to get them to look after his son who had been stuck in a car with him and his wife for 5 hours and both of whom were displaying symptoms - what absolute fucking nonsense.

To test his eyes he not only drove to a tourist hotspot he said he didn't and then got out his car and then went for a walk. He then sat down for a while which was also against rules at the time.

Wow

remember, he apparently relayed this crock of bollocks to the PM of this country yesterday and his conclusion was he'd acted with integrity.

Do the Conservative party not employ any PR people? This is a disaster. Pretty much every basic PR mistake you could make.

So basically they travelled to Durham and the only thing that changed in their circumstances was their postcode. He’s basically just said that they travelled to Durham to do nothing that they couldn’t have done by staying in London. Walks in the woods and castle visits aside.

Tbf they're usually pretty good at that. The fact this isn't going so well does indeed make me suspicious...
