The ‘exceptional circumstances’ clause was designed for vulnerable people in fear for their life, says journalist Anna Cafolla

During Dominic Cummings’ bolshy defence of his cross-country tour to Durham, breaking lockdown regulations, he centred on his “exceptional” need for childcare. This led him to drive 260 miles to his parents’ farm after his wife started to feel ill.

None is above law,v sud know that

Either he knew or he's not been paying attention! A man without a plan for his family panicked when he feared the worst. Given his role he is unsuitable for his job. Britain deserves better. He has to go.

Abuse victims? Have you seen the hoards of vultures outside his house?!?

Only in retrospect as a justification...

If he didn’t know , he should have known , if he knew , it’s wrong, if he didn’t it’s twice as bad

Any comments on this as he has/does write for yourself and the mirror, or do you find this acceptable to send to an MP wife?

He does not care.

Cummings respected guidelines as MattHancock said Now Keir_Starmer brings a criminal prosecution? Same CPS head who protected Jimmy Saville, now wants to hound Cummings for protecting his 4-year old, legally. Bring it on Sir Keir. lbc talkRADIO JuliaHB1 Iromg ConHome

Interesting article, but it’s not just women and children who are abuse vicitms

This is just one of his social engineering tricks. I have to admit he doesn't know moderation. He is a very spoiled man. However, lack of sensitivity and wisdom will ultimately lead him to his doom.

Does this mean that elliewilliams will be released after being forced to attend grooming ‘party’ because she feared for her life JusticeForEllieWilliams justiceforellie 🐘💜

Will you be paying him again the future?

What date was the clause subsequently added to provide protective measures for women and children stuck in domestic abuse households?

He's put his 4 yr old kid in the spotlight by using him as an excuse ! Nothing short of child abuse right there.

That’s low...There is no law saying stay at home even if it leaves your child at risk because you’re ill.

People are saying this is one of your lot. Is it true?

If course he did. Wonder how long it took to come up with the get out.

Dominic Cummings has shown it's one rule for the establishment, another for everyone else | Owen JonesWhen millions of people are making unprecedented sacrifices, the least we expect is for those in power to do the same, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones Central problem -if as DC said, he had no symptoms and his wife didn’t have Covid symptoms, why go to Durham in such haste? -if neither were sure they had Covid, it wasn’t an exceptional circumstance- so no travel. - if they suspected Mrs C had Covid-was against rules to travel. Not a rule, the law, which reasonable excuse stands up to scrutiny?
