No political discussion in this topic. That is complaining about a country, a politician, a party and/or its voters, etc

The excuse for going to Barnard Castle is genuinely astonishing.

Am I missing something - is saying sorry seen as fatally undermining someone's position these days? My instinct is that this would be playing a LOT better if he apologised, even a bit

He’d have done himself a world of good by as soon as this reared it’s head. Apologise and be honest, then sound out the public’s response. The way this has been dealt with has been an absolute train wreck.

Strongly disagree. Amazed our so called media hadn't found this out for themselves. It was the first reason I thought of

There will still be people breaking their necks to defend 'their team' over this. 

 

Absolutely everyone of any political leading should be fuming with the government over this fiasco. 

 

They've got their dicks out and whapping them around, here.

It's like saying you'd drive 10 minutes after 5 pints to see if you're okay before driving 2 hours.

Just seems to be involved in a huge party.... unless it’s old footage it just seems a bit off. Maybe I’m jumping the gun here


It’s Wilf’s wedding anniversary, he’s been posting pics and videos from his wedding ceremony last year.

someone who I know is a single mum with a six year old child. She came down with pretty nasty covid symptoms but still had to isolate alone with the child. She was ill in bed for days, barely able to get up at all and had to rely on a neighbour passing bowls of coco pops, beans on toast etc through the door for the kid. At no point did it occur to anyone that she might have been able to seek an "alternative arrangement". 

 

A pretty unpleasant ordeal for both mum and daughter but they still "stayed home"

So he was unsure on his ability to drive yet chose to go on a drive with his family? Surely if you felt you might not be capable you wouldn't risk your family coming aswell. Unbelievable that he thinks the public are gullible enough to believe his excuses.

Putting to one side the fact that it’s an obvious lie, it’s  one thing testing your eyesight out by driving half an hour. It’s another thing doing that with your kid in the backseat.
 

Given that this whole exercise was about looking after his child it doesn’t make any sense to take his kid with him if he was sufficiently worried about his eyesight to warrant a local trip.

 

It doesn’t make any sense at all.

So say if he made it to the castle and was ok was he then gonna continue to London or go back to Durham then start off again on his trip?

He did what any father would do.

He is not a politician, what are people expecting? 

Why watch it if you know the ending. lol

People are expecting him to just tell the truth and that to then prove he’s not done anything wrong. If he just did that he wouldn’t be so flustered. So yeah people want a clear and open delivery.

He seems like a pretty honest guy, I accept his statement, it's obviously full of truths, we should now move on.

 

:ph34r:

 

PS. If he apologised, there's no way it would end there, it would be taken as admitting he's done wrong, with calls for him to resign carry on.

'I drove half an hour to test my eyesight' is the new 'I haven't been able to sweat since the Falklands.'

Come now. Surely we've all driven out to Rutland Water and back just to check we're fine to drive up to the Lake District later the same day?
