... would like to find some excuse for this second breach of lockdown - after he was well and back at work - and when (presumably) the 'childcare' emergency was no longer valid reason?

naomi - // AH, //Do you seriously think you can compare people who carry out administration duties ...//
Is that all Civil Servant do then, AH? Are you sure? //
Please stop blowing smoke.
Your analogy is nonsensical, I have explained why I believe it to be unworkable, so by all means argue the point, but let's not trot off down blind alleys, shall we?

naomi - // AH, That you believe it's unworkable doesn't make you right. If you imagine all Civil Servants do a 9 to 5 job sitting at a computer screen number crunching with regular tea breaks and an hour for lunch you'd be very wrong indeed. You too diddly. Do a bit of research. //
Again you are trying to miss the point.
I don't care if civil servants spend the day trying on clown costumes and ingesting hallucinogenic drugs - the point is, there is absolutely no comparison between government employees whose status is not altered by the changes in government, and a senior adviser who works closely with the Prime Minister.
The role of the civil service is not the point of your analogy, and to try and make it so now is merely diversionary tactics, which are singularly failing to work.

AH, Diversionary tactics? Not at all. Simply responding to diddly’s...

Both wrong. What more can I say?

AH, //You stated that my assertion that Mr Cummings is a Tory supporter is wrong//
I said nothing of the sort. You said //I have no doubt that Mr Cummings is a Tory supporter - it would be virtually impossible for him to do his job otherwise//
It wouldn’t be virtually impossible for him to do his job otherwise.
And I didn’t say I was dropping the Civil Service connection. It’s relevant. Look at the job titles - not a 9 to 5 number-cruncher among them - and all working for the government. Tell me where their political allegiance lies.

Sorry to interrupt the usual nightly exchange, but by all accounts Cummings is not Tory, Labour, or anything. He has equal contempt for all of them.
He simply wants to do the best thing for the country without all these intellectually inferior MPs and journalists getting in the way. The trouble is that what he considers the best thing for the country is just whatever his own opinion is, like the rest of us.

//Cummings has described his political views as "not Tory (Conservative), libertarian, 'populist' or anything else"//
//On his appointment, The Guardian reported that at a conference in 2017 Cummings had argued that: "People think, and by the way I think most people are right: 'The Tory party is run by people who basically don't care about people like me'"; and that "Tory MPs largely do not care about these poorer people. They don't care about the NHS. And the public has kind of cottoned on to that".//
Mm, I wonder why so many Tories want him sacked.
He also says no-one should earn more than £100,000 a year.
Wonder why so many civil servants & presstitutes hate him. It's a mystery, isn't it?
