I used to watch The Thick Of It so I think I'm more qualified than most to say that behind the scenes they will be planning an exit strategy for Cummings to leave within the next few days. 

If he says fuckitybye I might actually have a moment of grudging respect for him.

If they'd sacked Cummings as soon as this happened they could have brought him back in a couple of years in plenty of time for the next election without anyone being that bothered. By delaying it they are making it impossible for him to return. There's a line in the Thick of It where Hugh Abbot says that with every day he delays resigning it's another year before he can return, applies perfectly here.

It shows how reliant Johnson is on him that he knows he can't even survive a year or two without him.

Still cant get over how Greece has only had 171 deaths with a 10 million population.
Multiply that by six for us 1200 deaths.
Weve totally fuxked it up.


Aye, this.

They're not known for their German style efficiency.
I'm not sure how consistent reporting standards are across countries. I think the mortality comparison to "normal" years may be a better measure. There are some places where you can't trust the infrastructure and others (not a million miles away) where you can't trust the reporting. 
Probably right.

Either that or there are elements of this virus that we don't understand yet, in terms of how it survives, or what kind of people are good at brushing it off.

It will mozza, the sensible people who held their noses & voted him in ahead of the catastrophe that was Venezuela mk2 being inflicted on the Worlds 5th (or 6th, can't remember)largest Economy are now absolutely incandescent that the rules don't actually matter anymore. This episode will probably result in a spike as everyone says "ah f**k it" and do what they want, it will not be forgotten & every other Party should hound them until he is history. 

Yeah that's right, you're the hero in all this and anyone who says otherwise is as bad as a racist.

Breaking the Hippocratic oath to own the fash? Can see the headlines already: "Leftie Doctors with funny names would rather see plucky brits die than do an honest day's work"

Do NHS folk even use the Hippocratic oath any more? Thought it was long since dropped for something more relevant and sensible, given that it's absolute nonsense.

What part of it did he break anyway?

I am actually shocked by the lack of awareness shown by The Tories and their brown nosers, Boris and Co were out digging a hole for themselves yesterday, now they've decided to hire an excavator, the 1922 Committee must be sitting wondering how they've managed to be overrun by imbeciles of the highest order, Starmer keeps his nose clean and he's in with a decent chance at the next GE.

Albert, just look up the mess that Venezuala has become. I do not enable anything, I detest extremism from both sides as it always ends up the same. The people suffer & arseholes like Cummings, Milne, Hancock & Abbott live high on the hog while the rest of us eat "cake".

Even if he does go, is anyone under any illusion that it would be anything other than a bit of symbolism to try and get everyone to shut the f**k up about it, and he'll just carry on as normal in the background?

This is what will happen. He’ll just be pissing into the tent from outside.
