Stay - Cummings is already being discredited (rightly or not).
LBC had a good point sacking Hancock will give credence to Cummings accusations. -
I'm surprised Cummings seems to be being outmanoeuvred but it doesn't currently seem his allegations carry much public support. Hancock might not be loved, but he's not loathed the way DC is by the public.
Also, supposedly DC was the one driving all the government policies he's now criticising.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

It's too late to criticise the Government for last year. The successful vaccine roll-out has made that old news.
With lockdown being lifted, all most people care about now is going down the pub, getting their hair and nails done and a fortnight in the sun.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment

It's too late - Johnson has floppy hair and Hancock cried in front of the cameras, and that's enough for the English public to let them off for effectively causing the excess deaths of 10s of thousands of the populations' elderly*

But equally have effectively saved 10s of thousands of lives on the vaccine front. I follow the stats quite carefully and after our anomalously high death rate during the winter, the UK has been steadily falling down the table ever since vaccination began, even as other nations go back into lockdown.Originally posted by Paralytic View PostIt's too late - Johnson has floppy hair and Hancock cried in front of the cameras, and that's enough for the English public to let them off for effectively causing the excess deaths of 10s of thousands of the populations' elderly*
