I think he’s probably that the media have misrepresented him and his massive brain a lot - it does seem true that he was arguing for lockdown early on among other things. But my god he personally weaponised misrepresentation against Labour and Remain alone so a) you love to see it and b) he should be much, much better at countering it than this.

Cummings said he warned about i.a. corona virus in 2019.Thing is, he didn't. References to SARS and corona virus were added to his blog post on pandemic risks sometime between April and May of this year. pic.twitter.com/NneonooLoj— ⬡ Jens Wiechers (@jwiechers) May 25, 2020

Some Tory MPs have ‘conveyed the strength of local feeling to relevant colleagues’. In some cases ‘robustly’ and even ‘very robustly’.

So Cummings had to stop on his 30 minute drive home from Barnard Castle to let his son have a wee but didn't need to stop once on the five hour journey from London to Durham?

According to Andrew Bridgen, Dominic Cummings is a key worker. Let's all get out there on Thursday night and give him the applause he deserves!

Killer fact from that is this.The Cummings/Wakefield family ended up in a hospital in Durham - 260m from home.That is precisely the reason the lockdown told people to stay at home if they get sick.So as not to spread the virus around the country.— Prof. Colin Talbot (@colinrtalbot) May 25, 2020

The question isn’t ‘did he stop?’ but ‘would a reasonable person expect not to stop?’ Which, of course, they wouldn’t. Getting lucky with your young child’s bladder doesn’t mean it was a reasonable thing.

Bridgen explains the Barnard Castle trip by saying that recovery from COVID-91 can affect your judgement. Good job Cummings' eyesight was good enough for him to drive back to London and take up his role in goverment again in that case.
