Four MP’s break lockdown not a peep none asked to resign this is all about Brexit always has been

That doesn't make what Cummings did ok. None of this is ok and any MP who has broke the lockdown rules should be fined and that goes for Government officials as well. Stop bringing it back to Brexit. This is more than Brexit. This is about democracy. People say they voted to leave the EU because they didn't want unelected officials/bureaucrats ruling them or making up laws but people are happy to have a unelected official/bureaucrat in the British Government make up laws and pretty much rules us. He addressed the nation from the N10 garden and people think this is ok? How is any of this ok? How can anyone defend this?

The way this pandemic and crisis has been handled by the Tories has been an absolute shambles from the start. Before anyone says Labour wouldn't have handled it any better, Labour haven't been in power for 10 years and if Labour were in Government and handled it like this then they would be criticised and rightly so.

• Worst Record in Europe
  
• The Government unprepared despite having 3-4 weeks prior warnings in advance
  
• Ignored offers of PPE numerous times
  
• Failed to protect the most vulnerable in care homes
  

Now they are treating the public like idiots, defending Cummings saying he didn't break the lockdown rules when he clearly did. They said back in March 'Stay home, Protect the NHS, Save lives'. Millions of us stuck by those rules and followed them. People have not seen there loved one's for weeks, people have not been able to bury family members. He broke the rules 3 times. He got in a car and drove to Barnard Castle to check his eyesight, What happens if his eyesight got worse? What happens if he had an accident? What happens if he had passed out or collapsed at the wheel?

Imagine if this was Corbyn. The media, the Tories, the electorate would be losing there minds. Diane Abbott had to publicly apologise to everyone last year because she drank a M&S mojito on the overground and they were calling her to be sacked or resign from the shadow cabinet.
