How many people in that “protest” today have been frothing at the mouth over Dominic Cummings breaking lockdown.

Hypocrites.

Croesy/Rudy, and his moral high ground sheriffs will ride into this thread soon to put you right. 👍

Cummings sort of shot the lockdown to bits and the government & the police backed him, bar a slight admonishment for his 60 mile partially sighted round trip to Barnard Castle, perhaps some folk are saying “F*ck it!”.

But lots of other people were saying "fcuk it" anyway. The Scottish health minister, 2 senior members of Manchester council, the top architect of the covid defence, and MP visiting her married lover and many others probably.
Now it occurs to me that it is not only people in public office doing this, it is also lots of ordinary people, it is just that the media look for them.
Even the guy who reported Cummins broke the rules himself.
Lots of people were doing it and are doing it, with or without any influence by these people. The average person doesn't need any excuse to do what suits him or her.
