No it's not that 1 hour ago, HanoiVillan said: I don't think this is a good way to look at the situation. People are too quick to rush to these 'I bet there's a dirty video' explanations. Rather than assuming that he's a Varis-type figure with kompromat on the entire Cabinet, is it more likely that they just kind of like him, don't want him to leave, and have realised that they've been able to lie and bluff their way out of dozens of previous situations over the last few years, so why wouldn't they eventually get away with it this time too? almost correct but with the wrong emphasis It isn't that they like him, it's that they know a) they'd be f***ed without him, he's the brains of the operation, the mastermind of all the campaigns, the lies, the spin etc and b) they know what he's capable of unleasing if he isn't on the inside They simply cannot get rid of him, he's too valuable to them and their grasp on power and without him the whole shitshow collapses, especially if he's directing the opposition forces 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because Cummings has proof that Johnson did shag that American businesswoman and, more shockingly, that she is evil twin sister that was separated from him at birth.

Stevo985 Posted May 25, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2020 I kind of wish they’d stop saying he violated the “spirit” of the lockdown. He didn’t. He violated the written down rules of the lockdown. “Spirit” makes it sound like he technically was in the right. He wasn’t. Is this finally the moment people start to realise what a lying piece of shit Johnson is? Probably not. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chrisvilla4 Posted May 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2020 One of the most difficult periods of a lifetime and we have a total disgrace of a man and party in charge. This is a time for leaders, people of honour and steel. We are lumbered with a lying, dribbling, public schoolboy who thought he had a pubic hair until he peed out of it. 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I'll tell you what was bad though, the way the press and photographers behaved outside of Dominic Cummings' home. That poor little boy has enough to deal with having autism, the last thing he would need is having all those cameras and microphones pointed at him, whilst loads of people were shouting. Imagine how scary that must have been for the little fella. On top of all that, they were not abiding by the social distancing rules either! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His dad caused that by breaking the law he had put in place. A decent dad would do the right thing, protect their children and abide by the law, and resign if they caused a national scandal. It’s entirely Cummings’ fault, 100%. That’s what was bad, using a child as a shield. The man’s an amoral scumbag. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
