Less than zero, I'd guess.

You can't just sack the actual ruler of the country, you stupid cunt.

Clearly, and unsurprisingly, not.

Handy they’ve got the long weekend to come up with something distracting for press on Tuesday. Also, you wouldn’t sack yourself if you were in charge, would you?

Coronavirus: Dominic Cummings rejects calls to quit as PM's chief adviser https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-52782913

Hahahaha! This has been planned very well by the press.

Yup, they've played a blinder. Get the first story out, allow time for the bullshit excuses and closing of rank, then hit them with the second story less than 24h later to pull the rug out from under the whole lot.

Does it really matter?

Yes.

Maybe if you've an agenda or need an axe sharpening I guess its useful. Isn't getting the country back on its feet however.

Decision makers need to be credible though Broccers !

I’d say that the cabinet closing ranks around an unelected advisor who didn’t follow rules we were all supposed to be following is important news.

I guess if you don’t have morals or integrity then it’s fine.

Why did we have a lockdown at all if it was perfectly ok to go travelling round the country when you’re displaying actual symptoms of the virus?

I've read it again, you were saying that the media would give him and easy ride compared to the scientist. Now you're implying it was a carefully planned attack by the media on DC. Which is it to be?
