Apparently now if you go to spec savers in town they test your eyes by sticking you in a 4x4 and getting you to drive to Walsall.

Right so he was wrong to drive to Durham everyone agrees about that. Was his reason one that vindicates that? That’s the question. He’s pretty much saying if you followed the rules as stipulated you are stupid or not rich enough to have identified a better answer. Ok then

Not that relevant really. Gummer was thatchers equivalent of Greyling - a great fall guy to keep around. Cummings can only be compared to Mr Campbell as he’s not a politician - Campbell behaved far worse but would not have cared and not put himself through this

Anyway we can safely say that was a big mistake and if they wanted to end the story they utterly failed

Do we think our cases will be down to 300 in a fortnight? Maybe if we stop testing so many people twice

Exactly. Desperate. Plus the whole excuse for going was they might need childcare.

All they had to do was tell the truth earlier, or at least not weave such a big web of lies, and it wouldn't have been half as bad, but unfortunately thats not in the DNA of these individuals. That stuff about the eye test really was peak bullshit, absolute fairytale bollocks.

I thought he handled it decently bearing everything in mind, he's better than Boris at answering questions (not that thats hard), but I can't see this being over yet what with all the comically bad lies that came out there for people to pick apart.

It's the antithesis of the reasoning that took him the initial 260 miles.

Fourth day out of five the number of people tested not available due to technical difficulties.

Amazing how there was never an issue with technical difficulties until it came out that the number of tests figure was inaccurate as some people were being counted multiple times.

Yep someone should have said do you expect us to believe you didn’t celebrate your parent and your wife’s birthdays.
