They drove hundreds of miles with his wife having vomited and him having no symptoms and the very next day he wakes with covid symptoms.

They drove up there so the family could help out but they never actually took part in any child care.

Then having taken all that effort to protect his child he sticks him in the car for a drive to test out his eyesight to see if he was fit to drive.

All sounds perfectly legit to me!

Anyways this is actually boring me senseless we'll all believe what we believe on this one.

The sensible way to test if your eyesight is good enough for driving is to try and read a number plate from 21 metres or so. Not to drive 30 miles and se if you crash.


Depends on the person sitting in the car.

Driving 250 miles in an enclosed space with suspected coronavirus carriers and other germs they were carrying is what probably cause the son to be sick. Certainly not my idea of protecting a child would be, quite the opposite.


Quite. Your wife has the virus. Your son is your world or whatever. Why not leave the wife at home to recover and get food parcels delivered while you deliver your precious first born to safety. Strapping him in a box with a sufferer seems frankly negligent parenting.

Why don't the pack of paparazzi smothering Dom and each other have to explain themselves ?  Are their jobs on the line ?  Bunch of hypocrites the lot of them.

Some people obviously think it's wise and responsible to test your eyesight by seeing if you crash your car with kid and wife involved.

Brendan O'Neill:



The media’s Dominic Cummings story has completely collapsed. He did NOT go to Durham a second time, which was reported on the front page of the Sunday Mirror and the Observer. He did NOT have any physical contact with family members. The police did NOT talk to the Cummings family about the Covid lockdown guidelines. Cummings did NOT carry on doing things that everyone else had stopped doing — he even missed the funeral of his uncle who died from Covid. He did NOT leave his London home for leisure reasons — he left it because he was receiving death threats as a result of media demonisation. He was very ill, his wife was ill, and at one point his child was taken to hospital in an ambulance in Durham.



His family has had a really rough time and the media have told lie after lie about him. The scandal is not Cummings’ behaviour — it is the collapse of ethics and objectivity in the British media.

This was at the height of the crisis Johny. Just a few days before the Government just passed this bill:

stopping at a service station for petrol with corona symptons wrong
going back to  work with symptons and no test wrong,

rumour has it cummings used his common sense at Grenfell opened the door through his wife and son on the landing ,shut the door,and waited 10 mins to see if they fried

Grenfell tower, wasn’t the experts advice to stay in your Flat in the event of fire, plenty who took that advice are no longer with us, sometimes it’s best to use your own judgement.

The photographer's outside Cummings house this morning were an utter disgrace.No social distancing and falling all over themselves to get a story that they in fact are potentially making worse than that Cummings is accused of.ffs.

Brendan believes that families all over the country were going out on test drives to check out the eye sight of the driver.
He is clearly confused.

Given the way the press have reported and acted on this story they too could be encouraging people to break the rules ?

Maybe that's the entire strategy.

Can blame it on the outraged plebs not following the rules if the exit strategy fails.

If the press report a Murder, you know, with all the shock horror sensationalised headlines, are they encouraging people to commit murder?

The gutter press did not report this story accurately, hopefully DC will get some cash from them.

The press are certainly not setting a good example either. For several weeks they have speculated about lifting the restrictions and asking why people couldn't go to the park etc. So the accusations of hypocrisy against them are not without basis. It doesn't excuse what cummings did, though.
