You need to change your username to "What About..."



Yep, many minor breaches going on at the HoP, on all sides. But the silence from the left after yet another Labour MP going out doing as they please has been deafening throughout. And this one joined a densely packed crowd of thousands. A crowd that vandalised property including memorials, and attacked the police.

"But yeah but no but Dominic Cummings..."

He was reprimanded by the party, whilst Cummings was protected at all costs even at the expense of the party and the public.
I told you your user name was selected incorrectly because you chose the son whilst most of what you post sounds like it comes from his father.

Who cares who's doing what anymore? Lockdown has well and truly entered the joke phase since its slow disintegration from VE Day. I've been taking it as serious as anyone since mid March, but I'm doing what I please now.

There's talk of 'air bridges' so we can fly to Portugal, but we can't even go in our family and friends' houses in the next town!!! Old Boris loves a good bridge.

Cronus writes long "what about Barry Gardiner" post...

Then accuses someone else of whataboutery.



A classic case of projection I think.

Ghost of 99 jumps in where he's made zero prior meaningful contribution and clearly has zero understanding of prior conversation on these matters.

If I'd avoided any discussion on Dominic Cummings you might have a point. I haven't, and you don't.

As you were. Bye bye now.

Bringing back physical voting in the HoP is just plain daft.
Yes, there are historical constitutional rules and tradition is great but, we are in unprecedented times and to have MP's, those supposedly running the country, travelling 100's of miles in order to cast their vote in person, shows how badly informed and out of tough some of our government really are.

Rees-Mogg and his cronies should be really proud of themselves



As for the protests, there are many that argue that protesting was more impotent than the virus but, you're right about the social distancing which, lets face it, has all but disappeared, apart from the local supermarket.
I wonder when and where it all changed and who may have been the rule breaking catalyst ??
Everything seems to have gone pear shaped since DC went on his jolly up and although you decided to "draw a line" under the issue, many others just thought feck it, "if HE can please himself then I will too"

I don't think it has anything to do with DC - the chances of getting/dying from this virus are so infinitesimal that the population are quite rightly saying the means simply doesn't justify the ends. How many victims have been white under 50's? It is so small it would need several zeros after the decimal point - how can lockdown be justified for millions given the current infection/death rate?

Also more people are going back to work and they see the death/infection rate stabilise despite greater freedoms - so why should the lockdown continue - even if there is a spike how big will the spike be even if its bigger than the last the death profile will no doubt be the same so for 99% of the population the impact will be none.

This let's wait for a virus - it might never come so do we stay in lockdown forever?

Have you considered there may be a little bit more to it than 'just voting', what about making laws, secondary legislation especially in the dynamic environment we find ourselves..... but hey headline stories

Give over. Social distancing ended long before it was revealed what DC did

It went pear shaped after VE day.

And pretty much every other business in the country is finding ways not to have huge numbers of people in close proximity but, Parliament cannot ??
If it wasn't for dinosaurs like Rees Mogg, we could potentially modernise the system a little.

Of course there are laws to pass but, I'm sure that you know that apart from PMQ's, the chamber is usually pretty empty and there ARE ways to "carry on" without moving all of our MP's to Westminster to listen to the argument and use their vote.

It's no wonder that so many of them seem to be struck down with the virus, certainly a greater percentage than the public at large and these people are making the rules and laws and SHOULD know how to conduct themselves and perhaps not be getting too close to one another.
