God knows how we will get out of this mess with the abysmal leadership of Johnson the liar.

well done BorisJohnson & DominicCumins nil illegitimi carborundum

Employees can't sack their bosses.

BBCPanorama Channel4News OK. Then we must have an Independant transparent inquiry to determine key causes why UK C19 death toll is highest in EU

BorisJohnson hasn't commented on the Sino-British treaty being broken by the CCP, and similarly with most things COVIDー19, he's slow to even protect his own people, national assets and social media against constant attack from the Chinese regime. We've backed the wrong horse

Cummings will go Boris the waster yellow bastard that he is is using Cummings as an excuse for him to walk they are covering each other, s backs up to now but that will change

So it's confirmed, Johnson's only concern is what's good for Johnson. Health of the nation,trivia. Reputation of the Tory party, piffle. Standing in the world, not bothered. Lockdown in tatters, irrelevant I WANT, therefore all & everything is immaterial ?Petulant egocentric.

All those journalists outside his home who are breaking the rules by gathering in a large group and not adhering to 2m social distancing should all be sacked. How many people will be infected because of their feral behaviour?

Shocking display from the MSM

Both should be sacked DominicCummings BoJoresign BorisJohnson

HYPOCRITE “Someone who pretends to have integrity, standards or qualities he doesn’t have”

HYPOCRITE “Someone who pretends to have integrity, standards or qualities he doesn’t have”

It is too late... they both must go!

He needs Cummings for the Big Brexit extraction, they don’t know how to do that without him

Cummings should do the decent thing and resign. The longer he insists on digging his heels in and staying put the more damage he does to the goverment he's meant to be serving. A very poor show all round.

He has revealed he cares little about the people who voted him there (not me, i cannot stand him) and his response is clear. Whilst we have been following the rules like mugs, making sacrifices and remaining at home - it turns out, it was discretionary. Today it ends for me

Boris won’t sack Cummings. It would be akin to Lord Charles sacking Ray Allen.

BorisJohnson has played himself into a corner. If he keeps Dominic Cummings in the cabinet he loses all public support. If he sacks Cummings, half his cabinet are discredited by their support of Cummings.

What’s needed here is a swift no nonsense reply ....✌️

Beginning of the end for the PM. When you condone the bending of your own rules how do you expect the general public to follow them, YOU DON’T

...my instinctive feeling is that Cummings will resign by the end of Wednesday. As the second wave begins due to people flouting the ‘Lockdown’. As hospitals are overwhelmed C19 2nd wave data will be reported without any lag as hospitals are ‘closed’.

They called one of the best police forces in the Country liars. You can bet Durham are going through their ANPR records right now.

Perhaps he should listen to the government ad on the radio today which says if you or a member of your household show symptoms of coronavirus you must stay at home and isolate and not leave under ANY circumstances.

BorisJohnson my wife had to give birth alone. My “instincts” asa father and husband were to be there to support her but I wasn’t allowed. Can you tell me if you were at the birth of your recent child?

Another U turn imminent!

What surprises me most is how poor Dominic Cummings' communications skills are. Really. Even for his own defence. Just SackHim.

The mail and guardian in synch... Fingers crossed this is the end of Bozo the clown.

And kill himself

The great british people will get behind their leader, he’s Boris, he might be privileged, he might be out of touch with the real world, but he’s fun, he’s cuddly, he’s upper class, he’s American, and that’s why we all idolise him... he’s ar Boris! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇸

He hasn’t got the bottle he’s DominicCumins puppet BorisJohnson Pinocchio 🤥

I thought he was just a consultant not direct gov employed so there will be a contract term on both sides of how much notice either side however if all is true I would put my daughters health & wellbeing above everything. I think we should go with discretion of 10DowningStreet

Only the Tory party can get this shambles ended and do the right thing. If they dont they will wither on the vine... they are not in touch with public opinion... the irony of Cummings so believed super power! So let me be clear .. I AM NOT A GOLDFISH

tomwaugh79 BorisJohnson Do the right thing for once in your life.

This govt thinks WE the public are the Goldfish nation. He is hoping this will be forgotten as soon as another big/distraction and probably planted story is released. Well I certainly wont. The Tories have another 4 years in govt and Boris feels untouchable from the public. 1/2

It’s bit like expecting Emu to sack Rod Hull.

it not 'double standard' it's 'BoJo' gold standard, the UK better gets used to it

Of course I ALWAYS consult The Guardian first to know whats going on in the heart of the Tory Party 🙄

He should resign too.Or take a nice trip to the woods

He should also sack himself and most of his lying cabinet.

Boris should resign BooToBoris BooAtBoris

Advice wanted: I'm currently suffering from a headache, fever and really bad coughing fits. Should I: A) Take my family on a road trip the length of England to my parents and maybe visit a castle. or B) Stay in and self isolate, like the guidelines I drew up say I have to.
